Ukrainian Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief Valery Zaluzhny admitted to British media earlier this month that Kiev's much-touted summer counteroffensive had reached a "stalemate," sparking a deadly, behind-the-scenes conflict with President Zelensky, who assured the dire situation was "not a stalemate."
Kiev may resort to the use of biological weapons following the failure of its summer counteroffensive, Igor Kirillov, the head of Russia's Radiological, Chemical and Biological Defense Troops, has warned.
"Due to the fact that Ukraine's Armed Forces have by and large failed to achieve any serious successes during their so-called counteroffensive, the Russian Defense Ministry expects a shift in their activity toward non-standard forms of warfare, including the use of biological weapons. This may include the deliberate contamination of water resources, including drinking water, the contamination of food supplies and animal feed," Kirillov said at a briefing Tuesday.
Russia has already uncovered "indirect evidence" of such activities, Kirillov emphasized, citing the discovery of "a large number of strains of thermal cultures, as well as frozen biological media for the cultivation of bacterial and viral pathogens," all from American collections.
Russia's RCBD Troops spent months after February 2022 revealing the dramatic extent of US military-biological activities in Ukraine, uncovering documents and other evidence pointing to a network of nearly four dozen biolabs alleged to be involved in the development of a dizzying array of bioweapons, including strains of viruses designed to target specific races or ethnic groups, and research into the modification of local flora and fauna as a form of economic warfare against an adversary. Beyond Ukraine, the RCBD Troops uncovered American and German research into an assortment of deadly viruses across the globe, from Africa and Asia and Latin America.
The RCBD Troops' revelations have reported led the United States to scale back its military-biological activities across the planet, and have prompted some Western media to independently investigate the Russian military's claims to independently verify the allegations. For instance, after a briefing by Kirillov implicating a hedge fund linked to President Joe Biden's son Hunter in a private-public partnership scheme funding shady biological research in Ukraine, British media dug through files from Hunter's so-called "laptop from hell," corroborating Russia's claims.
US officials themselves have also indirectly confirmed the presence of deadly biological research in Ukraine, with under-secretary of state Victoria Nuland telling senators last spring that Washington was "quite concerned" that Russian troops might seize "biological research facilities" in the country.
