A Russian brigade admits dropping tear gas on Ukrainian troops, which would violate the UN Chemical Weapons Convention

  1. TL;DR:

    * A Russian brigade said it had dropped tear gas as part of “a radical change in tactics.”
    * Using tear gas as a method of warfare would be a violation of international law.
    * Ukrainian troops had recently reported a surge in the use of tear gas on the front lines.

  2. I hope they have gas masks available… or we have to send them quickly.

  3. Just curious, how is non-lethal tear gas against the convention? What’s the rationale?

  4. The fact they’re using them should be grounds enough to boot them off the UN security council.

  5. we don’t need a single russian soldier to admit anything, we know they’ve been committing war crimes since day one and every day since.
