I know someone (internet) who lives around there and seriously keeps up with news, both regular and “irregular” channels.
NOTHING about this hazmat incident in news, or any other way. Totally buttoned up. THere was going to be a press conference; nothing. No news of those hospitalized, what the white powder was, nothing nada.
Also there were lots and lots of first responders, ambluences, hazmat and other official people at that site for many, many hours, all cordoned off.
Initial reports of the incident cited that personnel were hospitalized. It may be buttoned down now, but there definitely seemed to be a real attack.
How odd that it was put into a Cone of Silence.
Talks to the severity or lethality of the chemical. To disclose the chemical content publicly would be to publicly answering questions about origin, terrorist, gov, foreign gov, mafia, Russian mafia, etc.
This will be forensically traced to a source, our people will know the source.
