According to him, five cases were recorded in the past 24 hours when Russian troops dumped the poisonous substance chlorpikrin from drones. All cases are fixed in the Zaporozhye direction. "As for the Zaporizhzhya direction, and this is exactly the segment of the front, I can say that there is anxious information: Russians are increasingly used ammunition with a poisonous substance," the spokesman said.

He called it a testament that Russians could not fulfill their tasks with the help of conventional weapons: artillery and drones - and resort to "last hope" weapons. "These are chemicals, poisonous substances when they want to smoke our military from the trenches," he said. It is reported that during the week Russian troops used this chemical. From the beginning of the full -scale invasion of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, there were 626 attacks using chemical weapons.

For its part, the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reports that the Russian troops from the beginning of a full -scale invasion have already made 1068 chemical attacks on the position of defense forces. "Mobile groups and other units of grouping forces and means of support have recorded 1068 facts of use by the Russian Federation of Tears Action Irritants, equipped with poisonous chemicals," the publication reads.

In February 2024 alone, 250 similar cases were recorded (244 use of GP, 1 use of gas and 5 applications of other ammunition with a chemical). It is specified that most often the enemy uses chemical grenades, such as K-51, which are discharged from UAVs. The Institute of War Study notes that Russian troops may violate the Convention on Chemical Weapons (KHZ), which the Russian Federation signed in 1997.

Chloropicrin in its characteristics is close to tear gas, it does not necessarily lead to death, but can have extremely serious consequences if inhale. CHZ prohibits the use of chlorpicrin in hostilities. Recall that, according to the command, the most recorded cases of the use of CHIMMS of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation with the help of grenade launcher shots are recorded.
