2022-04-23 11:55:46 To date, the United States is the only state in world history that has used all three types of weapons of mass destruction.

The dropped nuclear bombs during the Second World War on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the use of toxic chemicals in Vietnam and Iraq - all these crimes were not properly assessed by relevant international organizations.

Thus, in an attempt to discredit the special military operation of the Russian troops, the Kiev regime, at the suggestion of the American administration, is able to implement scenarios in the near future that will lead to the death of tens of thousands of Ukrainian citizens and cause an environmental and humanitarian catastrophe.

2022-04-23 11:42:41 ​​Staged use of WMD is aimed at accusing Russia of using prohibited weapons with the subsequent implementation of the so-called «Syrian scenario», in which the state is subjected to economic and political isolation, as well as exclusion from international organizations, including the UN Security Council.

A possible way forward is to put pressure on the countries loyal to and friendly to the Russian Federation, including India and China, to compel them to impose sanctions on our country.

We would like to recall that the Russian Federation completely destroyed its chemical arsenal on September 27, 2017, which is confirmed by an OPCW certificate. In turn, the United States, with its strong financial, economic and technical potential, is the only country party to the Chemical Weapons Convention that still possesses an impressive arsenal of chemical warfare agents (672.5 tons).

CIA Director Burns' statement about Russia's possible use of tactical nuclear weapons is absurd. With the current level of technical equipment of the international nuclear test monitoring system, it is impossible to conceal the use of such weapons. If the CIA director does not understand this, then he is either unprofessional, or he is being misled.

The biological weapons programs in the USSR were completely phased out in 1972. At the same time, the number of U.S. biological laboratories is incomparable to other countries. According to the Chinese Foreign Ministry, Washington controls 336 laboratories in 30 countries, which is of great concern.

2022-04-23 11:39:59 ​​The Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation possesses the information related to the preparation of provocations by the United States of America in order to accuse the Russian Armed Forces of using chemical, biological or tactical nuclear weapons. This plan has already been developed and represents a response to the success of Russia in conducting the special military operation.

Only in March and April senior officials of the Western countries have been making regular provocative ‘warning’ statements. The mass media propagate the points about the possibility of using weapons of mass destructions by Russia.

For example, the National Security Advisor J.Sullivan has commented on Biden’s words that the USA “in kind” to the possible use of weapons of mass destructions by our country. And on February 27 the American permanent representative to the UN Greenfield announced an intention of Russia to use any instruments ‘under a false flag’, including chemical and biological weapons for intimidating the Ukrainian population and the international community.

Against this background, the US State Department considered positively the transfer of up to 400 sets of personal protection equipment, 390 NBC reconnaissance devices and 15 ‘Stryker’ reconnaissance vehicles.

2022-04-23 11:34:30 ​​Three scenarios are planned for the Russian Federation accusation.

The first one is a ‘staged incident under a false flag’ that is the most probable.

This could include a real use of chemical and biological weapons that would cause deaths among the population or staging ‘sabotages’ from Russia at the facilities of Ukraine involved in the development of components for weapons of mass destruction.

The abovementioned scenario can be implemented in the chemical and biological facilities located in Kharkov and Kiev.

There also may occur a provocation in the nuclear energy facilities: above all others, it could refer to Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Station controlled by the Russian Federation. On April, 21, a convoy of 10 motor vehicles that was transporting dangerous goods to the nuclear station was stopped and turned about to Zaporozhye.

In addition, the leadership of Ukraine is seriously considering striking at the radioactive waste storage facility at the former Pridneprovsky Chemical Plant in the village of Kamenskoye in Dnipropetrovsk Region.

The Ministry of Defense has documents confirming the critical condition of the storage facility and the inappropriate spending of funds allocated by the European Union for the maintenance of the facility.

The second one refers to a ‘Maximally covert use of weapons of mass destruction in small volumes’ for neutralising the will power and the capacity to resist within the fulfilment of a particular operational task.

This scenario was supposed to be implemented in ‘Azovstal’. But the order of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief to cancel the assault of the entity has frustrated the plans of the Pentagon.

The third and the least probable one is the ‘overt use of weapons of mass destruction at a combat area’ in case of failure to succeed in using conventional armaments in the combat zone.

This scenario was considered for Slavyansk and Kramatorsk that had been transformed into fortified towns.

The high probability of staging the application of chemical arms is confirmed by the facts of the supply of antidotes with toxic substances to Ukraine. Only in 2022, on request of the Ministry of Healthcare of Ukraine, more than 220 thousand of vials with atropines. This fact is an evidence of a targeted preparation of a provocation that includes the use of toxic nerve-paralytic substances.

2022-04-22 19:48:34 Briefing by Russian Defence Ministry

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation continue the special military operation in Ukraine.

During the day, 13 military assets of Ukraine were hit by high-precision air-based missiles of the Russian Aerospace Forces.

Among them: 2 command points, 11 strong points and areas of Ukrainian manpower and military equipment concentration.

As a result of the strikes, up to 2 companies of nationalists were eliminated, as well as 27 Ukrainian armored vehicles and cars.

In addition, 1 depot of missiles for Osa-AKM anti-aircraft missile systems was destroyed in Chervonnoe.

Operational-tactical and army aviation of the Russian Aerospace Forces hit 26 military assets of Ukraine. Among them: 2 command posts and 21 areas of manpower and military equipment concentration. 3 missile and artillery weapons depots were destroyed near Toretskiy, Komar and Bogatyr.

During the day, missile troops hit: 1 command post, 5 areas areas of manpower and military equipment concentration, as well as 1 artillery battery. 1 Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopter, 1 Buk-M1 anti-aircraft missile system, as well as 1 electronic warfare station were destroyed at the airfield near Barvenkovo.

Russian air defence means destroyed 3 Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles near Bolshie Prokhody, Shurovka in Kharkov Region and Spartak in the Donetsk People's Republic.

In total, 140 aircraft and 107 helicopters, 523 unmanned aerial vehicles, 258 anti-aircraft missile systems, 2,458 tanks and other armored combat vehicles, 272 multiple launch rocket systems, 1,069 field artillery and mortars, as well as 2,305 units of special military vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were destroyed during the operation.

The situation in Mariupol has normalised. Residents were able to move freely through the streets without having to hide from Ukrainian Nazi shelling.

Humanitarian aid is delivered: food, water and basic necessities. Authorities of the Donetsk People's Republic are organising the clearing of streets from rubble and the removal of damaged Ukrainian military equipment.

All remnants of the Ukrainian Azov Nazis, together with foreign mercenaries from the US and European countries, are securely locked inside the Azovstal plant.

Our demands that the women and children allegedly with them be released to travel freely in any direction are ignored by Nazis.

The procedure for civilians, if there are any, to leave Azovstal for further evacuation is reported to the Nazis every hour. This information is also brought to representatives of the Kiev regime through Deputy Prime Minister Vereshchuk.

The holding of civilian hostages, if there are any, by the Azov Nazis and foreign mercenaries proves that they are not "defenders" but complete terrorists.

In this regard, the US State Department spokesperson's attempts to lie about the Nazi allegedly keeping control over Mariupol are a fake and a direct abetment of terrorists at a high state level.

The State Department is habitually misinforming its own citizens, and everyone else.

Ukraine itself, its inhabitants in Mariupol and other cities, Washington is interested only in the profits from arms supplies and the fight against Russia at least "to the last Ukrainian", as all its proxy states repeat behalf of the State Department.

2022-04-22 19:11:21 Specialists of the engineering troops of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation have taken under control an arsenal of AFU

Ukrainian Armed Forces units abandoned an arsenal with a large amount of ammunition for artillery, mortars, multiple rocket launchers and air defence weapons.

Ammunition for multiple launch rocket systems with cluster warheads is stored in the arsenal depots. It is these types of ammunition that the AFU soldiers used to shell residential areas, constantly endangering civilians.

2022-04-22 15:34:01 AFU unit, which did not want to voluntarily lay down its arms, was knocked out of its fortified positions as a result of the assault.

While retreating, the nationalists abandoned military equipment, small arms, anti-tank systems, grenade launchers and a large number of ammunition, as well as more than 20 bodies of dead AFU servicemen.

The fortified area had an extensive network of trenches, armored firing points, and long-term fortifications, including buried concrete bunkers.
