Chemical attack in Ukraine
A dangerous incident took place in the Luhansk region, which can be considered by NATO as a “chemical attack” and there can be rapid developments.
According to information, a nitric acid tank was hit, releasing deadly gas in the surrounding area.
Russians and Ukrainians are blaming each other for who hit the nitric acid tank.
The regional administrator, Serhiy Haidai, said “Russian forces hit a tank in Rubizne and called on residents to stay in shelters. Mentioned features:
“Do not leave the shelters! If you are indoors – close the doors and windows!
Nitric acid is dangerous if inhaled, swallowed or in contact with skin.
Gas masks are used to protect against vapors and clouds of nitric acid. Get your face masks ready! ”
Haidai has warned of bronchitis, dizziness and drowsiness, which usually follow exposure to mild nitric acid levels. At higher exposure, people are more likely to experience pulmonary edema, he said, adding that it can also cause vision loss when it enters the eyes.
In severe cases, ingestion of high doses of nitric acid can lead to death.
NATO has unexpectedly sent tanks and armor to Ukraine via the Czech Republic, with suspicions that anti-aircraft and fighter jets are following as Bulgaria receives 8 F-16 Block 70s.
The Americans are preparing the ground for a direct military engagement, at least in western Ukraine.
This shows a series of hasty military moves. The change in American attitude is evident after the massacre in the city of Busa.
The Czech Republic sent tanks and armor to Ukraine
The Czech Republic sent T-72 tanks and BVP-1 armored personnel carriers (the Czech version of the Soviet BMP-1) to Ukraine.
This is the first mission of a NATO member country.
It is still unknown how many tanks and armor the Czech Republic sent. Some sources speak of 40 T-72M1 and BVP-1 tanks and others of 100.
At the same time, NATO sources report that another batch is being prepared with T-72, Gozdika and BTR.
The information was confirmed by the head of the European Affairs Committee of the Czech lower house, Audrey Benesic, who said he had received the information from the Christian Democrat’s defense expert.
Defense Minister Yana Chernotsova told Parliament she would not confirm or deny details of Czech aid to Ukraine.

The non-operational KC-46s in Poland and Germany
USAF has sent KC-46 air supply tankers to Poland and Germany.
At the same time, an additional 10 American F-18 fighters were stationed in Poland, while two B-52s are constantly operating in southeastern Europe, in Adriatic and northern Greece. The US has amassed a large air force in Poland.
Russian sources speak of “American invasion force in Ukraine”.
It is noteworthy that the Boeing KC-46 began to carry out air supply missions in Europe, supporting American fighters and bombers over Germany and Poland , although they are not yet considered operational.
Why did the US rush the non-operational KC-46s? Obviously the US wants to keep dozens of fighters in the air if needed.
U.S. military sources say “the aircraft and personnel will support actual, operational missions as required.”
This particular tanker does not supply specific NATO and US aircraft such as the A-10 Warthog. However, it supplies 85% of American aircraft, mainly F-35s and F-22s.

Shooting down two Ukrainian Mi-8s
The Russian Defense Ministry announced that two other Ukrainian Mi-8 helicopters were shot down, which tried to evacuate members of the Azov Battalion. And not only.
“This morning there was another attempt to free Azov forces near Mariupol.
Two Mi-8 helicopters of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, this time trying to cross the city bypassing and entering from the sea, were hit by MANPADS, as the previous time.
The Russian side has repeatedly offered the Ukrainian army a humanitarian corridor. Stop the hostilities, voluntarily lay down arms and leave Mariupol on the agreed route to the Kyiv-controlled area.
The same offer was made at 6:00 this morning. But, as before, the Ukrainian side ignored the proposal.
“Given Kiev’s indifference to the preservation of its military life, Mariupol will be liberated from the nationalists by the Russian military and Donetsk forces,” the Russian Defense Ministry said angrily.
It seems that the Ukrainian authorities have rejected the Russian offer for a humanitarian corridor on Ukrainian territory and now the Ukrainian troops in Mariupol can only fight to the death or surrender.
Thriller with an American Officer
U.S. sources say a senior U.S. official leading a group of 30 Ukrainian soldiers, not members of Azov, has been trapped.
He is accompanied by Officers from France-Germany-Britain and Sweden.
This is probably the reason why France has recently called for a “humanitarian corridor”.
This group is hidden in the Azovstal industrial complex.
