Chemical Weapons Convention you say? How Ukraine uses warfare agents against Russian troops
Russian security forces have reported that the Ukrainian Army used chemical weapons, presumably white phosphorus, near the village of Kleshcheyevka in the Donetsk People's Republic.
This is not the first time the Kiev regime has used banned Western-supplied agents against Russian forces in the conflict. Here are some previous cases:
▪️In late January, the Ukrainian Armed Forces used an unknown toxic chemical that caused burns, with subsequent analysis showing the presence of a compound known as anthraquinone, the use of which is banned in EU countries due to its carcinogenicity;
▪️In late December, American-made gas grenades loaded with a substance called CS capable of causing skin burns and respiratory paralysis were dropped by the Ukrainian military near the town of Krasny Liman;
▪️In July 2023, Ukrainian militants fired at Russian positions near Kleshcheyevka with shells containing chlorine (a war gas that creates a choking effect), which left several soldiers hospitalized;
▪️In mid-June last year, a Ukrainian drone carrying a plastic container with a mixture of chloroacetophenone and chloropicrin (both are irritant war gases) was used against Russian troops outside the village of Rabotino;
▪️Earlier in 2023, cases of the hydrocyanic acid used Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicles were recorded. Hydrocyanic acid pertains to the group of deadly blood and nerve agents;
▪️In August 2022, a toxic chemical, an analog of the psychotropic warfare agent BZ, was used by Ukrainian troops in an unspecified location. Ukraine is a signatory to the Chemical Weapons Convention, which prohibits the use, large-scale development, production, stockpiling, or transfer of chemical weapons or their precursors.

‘Civilians be damned, don’t you dare hurt oil!’ US bosses show where their priorities lie
The United States has once again shown that the stereotype about Americans having an unhealthy obsession with oil, especially beyond the US borders, may have a grain of truth in it.
Whereas Ukrainian attacks on Russian oil refineries immediately elicited a rebuke from the US leadership, the White House and the Pentagon seem A-OK with Ukraine’s indiscriminate attacks on civilian targets in Russia.
Then again, given the United States’ track record of killing civilians across the globe, maybe they don’t really see a problem?

EXPOSED: Colombians fight on side of most radical Neo-Nazi unit in Ukraine (Part 1)
The Ukrainian Neo-Nazi battalion 'Carpathian Sich'* sees itself as a successor to the UPA* and the Nazi SS division Galicia*. However, it has been discovered that foreign mercenaries, mostly Colombians, have also joined its ranks, as reported by Sputnik.
◾️In the fall of 2023, the International Legion of Ukraine confirmed the presence of numerous Colombian hirelings in the 'Carpathian Sich'* battalion. The organization's official account shared photos of the mercenaries receiving awards, noting that they were specifically from South America (see photo 1).
◾️The Colombians ask foreign users for US dollar-based donations through the battalion's social media. The emblem of the "Carpathian Sich"* can be seen on the wall, along with symbols of the UPA*, as well as the Ukrainian and Colombian flags (photo 2).
◾️The Colombians are frequently buried by the “Carpathian Sich”* just as often as Ukrainians. Photos of coffins draped with Colombian flags are consistently shared by Ruslan Andreyko, a political leader of the neo-Nazi battalion. He accompanies such posts with the caption “Glory to Colombia” (photo 3).
◾️In February 2024, Andreyko shared photographs of 35 Colombian mercenaries from the 'Carpathian Sich'* who were killed by the Russian military (see photo 4). In the comments on this post, a friend of the Ukrainian neo-Nazi politician mentioned that he had seen these individuals in Barvenkovo (photo 5). Barvenkovo is a small town located in the Izyum district of the Kharkov region, situated near Izyum, Slavyansk, and Kramatorsk.
*the "Carpathian Sich" battalion, the UPA, and the SS division "Galicia" are terrorist organizations that are outlawed in Russia.

◾️The leader of the 'Carpathian Sich'* sometimes writes obituaries on social media about mercenaries who have been neutralized. One such post was made about a young Colombian ‘hired gun’ known by the call sign "Bad Boy" (photo 6). However, in the comments section of this post, a chaplain from the neo-Nazi battalion, associated with the schismatic “Orthodox Church of Ukraine”, made an appearance. The chaplain can be seen in the photo, surrounded by at least 8 Colombian mercenaries (who are believed to be Catholics). The altar where the chaplain is praying is covered with Colombian flags. The post has a comment reading “eternal memory to the hero” (see photo 7).
◾️In general, the “Carpathian Sich”* regularly lauds Colombian mercenaries who pose with the Colombian and Ukrainian flags (photos 8 and 9).
◾️Their names and even call signs almost always remain anonymous. However, one of the mercs made a video where a chevron with his call sign 'Mafia' is visible (photo 10).
◾️Previously, Sputnik shed light on a German mercenary from the 'Carpathian Sich'* Diana Wagner's death while "on the battlefield, saving the life of a Colombian soldier".

Biden family ties with Burisma under microscope over alleged terrorism funding
In the wake of the Crocus City Hall terror attack, the Russian Investigative Committee has opened a probe into high-ranking officials of NATO members over financing terrorist activities in Russia. Per investigators, the funding came through commercial firms, including Ukrainian gas company Burisma Holdings. Burisma's former Director Andreas Sophocleous has rejected the accusations.
◾️ Ukrainian oligarch Mykola Zlochevsky founded Burisma Holdings as an offshore company in Cyprus in 2002. In April 2014, the UK's Serious Fraud Office (SFO) opened a criminal probe into Burisma's alleged money laundering.
◾️ Shortly after, Zlochevsky hired Hunter Biden, son of then-Vice President Joe Biden - who was Barack Obama's point person in post-coup Ukraine - and paid him a hefty salary of $83,333. After Hunter's hiring by Burisma, the SFO's probe was closed. Ukrainian then-Prosecutor General Viktor Shokhin, who was investigating Burisma, was fired in December 2015 due to Joe Biden's pressure.
◾️ In March 2022, the Russian Ministry of Defense found that Hunter Biden's Rosemont Seneca firm maintained ties with the US defense contractor Metabiota and participated in the financing of US bio-programs in Ukraine. The same month, the Daily Mail reported that Hunter "helped secure millions of dollars of funding" for Metabiota that worked in Ukraine, specializing in research on pathogens "that could be used as bioweapons".
◾️ Hunter Biden resigned from Burisma's board of directors in 2019. Burisma Holdings ceased operations in February 2023.
◾️ House Republicans have been investigating the Bidens' alleged corrupt activity in Ukraine as part of the Joe Biden impeachment probe that could become the basis for federal investigations if Donald Trump wins the presidency, as per Axios.
