Pro-russian Telegram channels started a disinformation campaign regarding the use of chemical weapons by Ukrainian fighters in the Bakhmut area
💬 January 12, 2023: «They hang containers with an unknown substance from drones. It is probably hydrocyanic acid, which releases a deadly gas when it evaporates»
💬 February 5, 2023: «Novobahmutivka. Relegating chemistry to advanced positions … Ukraine used chemical weapons. There is no doubt that this was done with the approval of American curators»
🔶 The reports refer to the «Birds of Magyar» unit, which uses authorized VOG projectiles (grenade launcher), which in combination with a drone forms a kamikaze drone
‼️ Warning!
The information about the use of chemical weapons isn’t true and is part of a disinformation campaign. Its purpose is to bring to the world information about Ukraine’s alleged violation of the laws and customs of war, which russia has never observed
