Russia fails to get UN to establish biological weapons inquiry into Ukraine
Russia has failed to get the United Nations Security Council to establish a formal inquiry into its accusation that the US and Ukraine have biological weapons programs in Ukraine.
The accusation was made by the Kremlin in early March just after Russian forces entered Ukraine.
Speaking to reporters at the time, Kremlin spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said: "We can conclude that in Ukrainian laboratories close to our borders, components of biological weapons were being developed.
"The urgent destruction of these materials was ordered in order not to disclose the materials and the programmes that were being made there."
It involved deadly pathogens including plague and anthrax, she said.
However, a US official dismissed the claim as "absurd propaganda" and accused Russia of seeking retroactive pretexts for the war.
At the time, the European Union also said it doubted the credibility of Russian claims.
Russian narcissism at its best lol
=======================================================================
June 14th 2022 - Washington has been urged to come clean over its biolab program in Ukraine after the Department of Defense admitted its existence. The Pentagon said on Thursday that it has operated 46 biolabs in Ukraine handling dangerous pathogens, after previously dismissing the charges as Russian propaganda.

Sorry I try to fact check where possible. this was discussed in this thread months ago. the US had biolabs in Ukraine, they were active and afaik they were all wiped and relevant files relating to same all shredded, at the time.

Ukrainian police uncover 34 torture chambers and prisons in country - reports
Police in Ukraine have discovered 34 torture chambers and prisons in areas that were previously occupied by Russian forces, the independent Ukrainian news organisation Hromadske International reports, citing the Ukrainian national police.
The report states that the torture chambers and prisons were found in Sumy, Kyiv, Chernihiv, Kharkiv, Donetsk and Kherson regions.
In April this year, the scale of civilian casualties in regions across Ukraine were laid bare as Russian forces began to withdraw.
Images from the commuter town of Bucha, just outside Kyiv, showed dead bodies with their hands tied behind their backs - seemingly shot at close range.
And satellite imagery also revealed a makeshift mass grave outside a church in the town.
Typical Russian Barbarism
thats probably all true though.
