The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation began to use chemical weapons on the front against the Ukrainian military more often. This was reported in the Armed Forces Support Command on Facebook. "The trend is increasing, and the use of dangerous chemicals by the enemy has become systemic," the message reads.

On the front, the main way of delivery is to use unmanned aerial vehicles with K-51 and RG-in. The command noted that during the month, 371 cases of use of ammunition containing dangerous chemicals were recorded at the front. As a result, this is 90 more than in the previous period.
