Ο ουκρανικός στρατός καταγγέλει ότι η Ρωσία έχει εντείνει την παράνομη χρήση χημικών και δακρυγόνων στο μέτωπο για να προσπαθήσει να καθαρίσει τα χαρακώματα καθώς αρχίζει να κάνει μεγαλύτερες προόδους στα ανατολικά περισσότερα από δύο χρόνια από την πλήρη εισβολή της.

Τα χημικά, όπως τα δακρυγόνα, απαγορεύονται στο πεδίο της μάχης από τη διεθνή Σύμβαση για τα Χημικά Όπλα, την οποία έχουν υπογράψει η Ρωσία και η Ουκρανία.

Ενώ οι άμαχοι μπορούν συνήθως να ξεφύγουν από τα δακρυγόνα που χρησιμοποιούνται για να διαλύσουν ταραχές ή διαδηλώσεις στις πόλεις, οι στρατιώτες που έχουν κολλήσει σε χαρακώματα χωρίς μάσκες αερίου πρέπει είτε να φύγουν κάτω από τα εχθρικά πυρά είτε να κινδυνεύσουν να πνιγούν από το αέριο.

Ο συνταγματάρχης Σεργκέρι Παχόμοβ, εν ενεργεία επικεφαλής των δυνάμεων ατομικής, βιολογικής και χημικής άμυνας του στρατού, είπε ότι το Κίεβο είχε καταγράψει περίπου 900 χρήσεις χημικών από τη Ρωσία τους τελευταίους έξι μήνες από τις 1.400 από την εισβολή του Φεβρουαρίου του 2022.

Η πρεσβεία της Ρωσίας στην Ολλανδία, όπου εδρεύει ο Οργανισμός για την Απαγόρευση των Χημικών Όπλων (OPCW), δήλωσε στο X τον Ιανουάριο ότι οι ισχυρισμοί για χρήση βομβίδων από τη Ρωσία με αέριο CN είναι ψευδείς. Η Μόσχα κατηγόρησε προηγουμένως τις ουκρανικές δυνάμεις για χρήση χημικών όπλων, κάτι που το Κίεβο αρνείται.
