Is the US preparing a chemical attack? Shoigu surprised with a new fake about Donbass

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said that in the Donbas, the US military is allegedly preparing a provocation using chemicals. He stated this at the collegium of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

According to him, employees of American private military companies allegedly operate in the Donetsk region.

“The presence of more than 120 employees of American PMCs (private military companies) in the settlements of Avdeevka and Priazovskoe in Donetsk region has been reliably established. They equip firing positions in residential buildings and at socially significant facilities, prepare Ukrainian special operations forces and radical armed groups for active hostilities. Tanks with unidentified chemical components were delivered to the cities of Avdeevka and Krasny Liman to commit provocations. “, – said Shoigu.

This is not the first fake from the invaders

• In December 2018, propagandists spread a rumor in the occupied territories of Donbass about the threat of “chemical bombing”, about the arrival at the front near Donetsk at the disposal of the Armed Forces of Ukraine of poison gas tanks with inscriptions in German under the protection of the “Right Sector”.
• Ukrainian intelligence explained that the invaders with such horror stories deliberately escalate the situation in the so-called. “L / DNR” and are trying to justify their criminal activities. Later, the militants were shamed with a fake about the “chemical weapons of the Armed Forces of Ukraine”.
• Moreover, the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine announced that Russia was preparing a chemical attack in the Donbas with a large number of victims. The Russian troops were even brought the latest chemical protection equipment for testing.
• And who else, if not the Russian leadership, should know about chemical weapons. Especially when it comes to the “Newbie” poison. The Kremlin was accused of using poisonous gas in Britain and even in Russia itself against opposition leader Navalny.
