The West’s proxy war against Russia in the Ukraine has led to progressively more deadly weapons systems and ammunition to be delivered to Zelensky’s Nazi regime.
Possibly, the most controversial of these deliveries are the deadly radioactive shells for Challenger 2 tanks that the British government has given Ukraine.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr commented on Instagram:
“In another reckless escalation, Britain has confirmed delivery of depleted uranium munitions to Ukraine. DU munitions should be banned. They partially vaporize on impact, poisoning the environment with uranium dust that causes cancer and horrific birth defects.”
On Saturday, during a massive air and missile raid on Ukraine, Russian forces hit a ammunition depot in Khmelnytsky, in the western part of the country, causing gigantic explosions in the site.
Intel Slava reported:
“It is worth noting that panic reports are spreading in Ukrainian social networks that during the detonation of an ammunition depot in Khmelnytsky, a large batch of British tank ammunition with depleted uranium, which was recently brought to Ukraine along with Storm Shadow missiles, was also destroyed. As a result of a huge explosion, particles of depleted uranium could be dispersed on the territory of the Khmelnytsky region, which, taking into account the experience of Yugoslavia and Iraq, could lead to an outbreak of cancer in the medium term.”
It didn’t take long for the results of the impact to be measurable scientifically.
Slavyangrad on Telegram:
“A clear spike in gamma radiation was detected in Khmelnitsky on or about May 12th, with emission continuing to rise the following day and remaining at the elevated level thereafter.
Considering how little gamma radiation comes from depleted uranium, this clear spike in gamma radiation in Khmelnitsky indicates that there was very large stockpile of the DU munitions that was destroyed, raising the uranium dust into the air.
By comparison, the towns of Ternopol, Khmilnik, and Novaya Ushitsa remained at their apparent regular, base levels. This indicates that the Khmelnitsky anomaly is indeed a spike and corroborates the claim that the stockpile in Khmelnitsky contained DU munitions.”
While the UK authorities dismissed the danger posed by this kinds of shells, the experience in Yugoslavia and Iraq has shown how deadly in the medium term these vaporized depleted uranium shells can be.
Videos at link of what a real explosion looks is supposed to look like in a war as opposed the puny ones like the ones Ukraine launched on the Kerch Bridge that didn't even stop traffic flow for a day.
Sounds like nato was using nukes on russia.
So devilishly clever of the West to trick Russia into invading Ukraine.
If you have an IQ of room temperature perhaps.
Leftists have always shrieked about deleted uranium.
One of their perennials.
Sounds like you don’t have any idea what is going on.
The amount of radioactivity is probably what you would get from a cat scan.
The drama on this site these days is stunning. And the weak and simple are drawn into it.
Most folks could benefit from a lesson in how to do basic research.
They’re nutty about white phosphorus too.
And a chilly room at that.
Yeah.
I already posted this but since the same topic has came up, here it is again: (no idea how accurate the claim is)
“ Twitter has a post that claims the ammo dump had 2,200,000,000 worth of US ammo and supplies. Supposedly.
Gone in literally a second.
If my math is correct that is about 3 hours of the TOTAL US value of all produced goods.
Insanity.”
WTH is going on?
The Brits want to use Ukraine as a Nuke Weapons testing ground.
The problem with depleted (of U-235) uranium is that it is an alpha emitter. Alpha particles have a very short range but when ingested cause maximum cell damage.
“I thought British a-holes and neocon dim wits insisted depleted uranium shells weren’t a danger.”
Well, they’re not a danger to the Brits, at least not yet. As to Ukrainians, the Neocons (including the Brits) have clearly shown they’re disposable...so just another way to dispose of them.
Really?
Depleted means depleted as in non-radioactive.
The fact that we are concerned about radiation from it means it is still radioactive.
Sounds like nato is using dirty ammunition.
(In other words, nato is using nukes)
Maybe you have a different definition of “depleted” but we can be sure if the shoe was on the other foot and we were concerned about radiation from russia’s ammunition, you’d be screaming that russia is using nukes.

RADIOACTIVE PANIC: Russians Missiles Hit Ukrainian Ammunition Depot in Khmelnytsky Causing Massive Explosion – Cache of British Depleted Uranium Tank Shells Destroyed – Gamma Radiation Spikes in the Region’s Atmosphere
So where is the gamma radiation coming from?
Gateway Pundit is depleted of facts.
No matter whose side you’re on, that was one cool explosion!
“The amount of radioactivity is probably what you would get from a cat scan.”
Well, I’m glad you have taken those measurements and all is well.
Do cat scans use gamma radiation?
Jimmy Hoft's butthole perhaps.
