    vs.

    Ukraine front could ‘collapse’ as Russia gains accelerate, experts warn

    OPCW Investigation Confirms Russia’s Likely Use of Chemical Weapons Against Ukraine – (Archived)

    Russia’s consistent denials that its military forces have deployed illegal chemical weapons in Ukraine were dealt a serious blow on November 18, when the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) announced that it had recently conducted a Technical Assistance Visit to Ukraine and established evidence of chemical weapons use. While the OPCW stopped short of attributing responsibility to Russia, a growing body of evidence points to numerous Russian chemical weapon attacks against Ukrainian front-line troops in violation of the 1997 Chemical Weapons Convention, to which Moscow is a party.

    The original OPWC report is here.
