The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) confirmed on November 18, 2024, that banned CS riot control gas was detected in shell and soil samples from Ukraine's battlefield. This finding comes amid increasing evidence that Russia has intensified its use of chemical weapons in recent months. The international chemical weapons watchdog reported that the samples were collected from areas where Ukrainian forces are engaged in combat with Russian troops. The use of tear gas, classified as a chemical weapon, has raised significant concerns regarding compliance with international treaties governing chemical warfare.
