The information has been verified by the intelligence services and the State Emergency Service. This was reported by the Center for Countering Disinformation on April 16.
“It is known that one of the UAVs contained a capsule with a concentrated combat poisonous substance ‘CS’ (an irritant). This is a highly toxic substance with an irritating effect”, - noted the Center.
The Center added that enemy UAVs may scatter capsules with the poisonous substance in order to harm people. However, the information circulated by some media outlets that the bodies of russian drones themselves are treated with toxic substances has not been confirmed.
It was previously reported that russia has been systematically using chemicals on the front line.
