Toxic substances affiliated with chemical weapons were found in a Ukrainian cache close to the key city of Pokrovsk in Donetsk, the Regional Directorate of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) announced on November 22.
The Russian military is currently engaged in a fierce battle in Pokrovsk. Kiev forces have been already expelled from most of the city. Mopping-up operations are underway.
In a statement, the FSB said that sealed tubes with chemical warfare agents, explosives, and gasoline containers were found in the cache near Pokrovsk.
“Joint operational and combat activities by the Regional Directorate of the Russian Federal Security Service and military counterintelligence units of the Central Military District resulted in discovering a cache of homemade UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) ammunition containing toxic substances in a dugout used by Ukrainian militants,” the statement said.
According to the security agency, the sealed tubes contained chloropicrin, a banned chemical agent, as well as plastic explosives and gasoline-filled containers that, when detonated, produce phosgene, a lethal suffocating compound.
The agency’s investigation determined that orders to manufacture and use chemical weapons against Russian troops were issued by Sergey Filimonov, commander of the 108th Assault Battalion of Ukraine’s 59th Separate Motorized Infantry Brigade.
The Military Investigation Department of the Investigative Committee for the Joint Forces has opened a criminal case on attempted crimes, organizing criminal activity, murder, and the use of prohibited means and methods of warfare under the relevant articles of the Russian Criminal Code.
Over the past year there have been multiple reports of Kiev forces deploying chemical weapons against Russian troops and civilians, specifically in Donetsk.
In an interview with RT published on December 1, Russian Foreign Ministry’s ambassador-at-large on the Kiev regime’s war crimes, Rodion Miroshnik, revealed that Ukraine was importing toxic substances from its Western backers, whom he also accused of covering up for Kiev’s chemical weapons.
According to Miroshnik, Russian experts recorded more than 400 instances of prohibited chemical weapons being used by Kiev forces during the summer of 2024 only.
The cache found near Pokrovsk was not the first. On July 1, the FSB found a similar cache with the same toxic substances near Ilyinka in Donetsk. At the time, the agency said that the substances were packaged with plastic explosives and rigged into improvised munitions designed to be dropped from drones.
The use of toxins by Kiev forces, which is not surprising, reflects a high level of desperation in Ukraine, which has been losing one battle after another.
Interestingly, the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons has not yet made any serious move to at least investigate the harmful chemical activities of Kiev.

england invented chemical weapons they started it with mustard gas. they invented concentration camps which they created in south africa so they could steal, using the debeeres familyz tonnes and tonnes of diamonds using the original land owners as their slaves. much like i imagine musk’s had their enerald mines allegedly operating although i don’t ever recall ever hearing about that .
actually the first concentration camp was set up in 1905 at lüderitz bay in german south west africa (namibia) under the governorship of lothar von trotha.as for mustard gas, this was first formulated in 1822 by césar-mansuète despretz, a french citizen, and was first used by the german army in ww1 who used a formula perfected by emil fischer in berlin. nice try, hans…..
