Russia using illegal chemical gas to attack us – Ukrainian soldiers cry out


Ukraine has accused Russia of illegal chemical gas attacks against its soldiers.


Ukrainian troops told the UK Daily Telegraph that Russia has regularly attacked them with small drones dropping teargas and other chemicals.


The use of such substances, also known as CS, is banned during wartime under the Chemical Weapons Convention.


Moscow was accused of using chemical weapons in a drone assault on the port of Mariupol in the early stages of its invasion in February 2022.


Slava, a senior lieutenant whose unit is deployed near Lyman, in Donetsk oblast, said some Ukrainian units in his area were coming under “almost daily” gas attacks.


The grenade was originally retrieved by soldiers in the 53rd Mechanised Brigade, one of the units with which she works.


Maciorowski said: “My guys retrieved it while under fire because nobody believed they were being attacked with chemical weapons.”


Ihor, the commander of a Ukrainian reconnaissance team deployed near the frontline city of Chasiv Yar, in Donetsk oblast, told the Telegraph: “Nearly every position in our area of the front was getting one or two gas grenades dropped on them a day.


“The only way for them to successfully attack us was with gas.”
