"Deep of Death": the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation used chemical weapons in Ukraine on the basis of substance Lewuise (video)

Combat poisonous substance is capable of penetrating the materials of protective suits and gas mask. Inhalation of a high concentration of leuisitis occurs death from pulmonary edema or later from necrotic pneumonia. On July 4, a spokesman for the Tavriysk Defense Force forces of Tavriysky reported that in the Bakhmut direction, Russian invaders used chemical weapons against Ukrainian fighters on the basis of the element of Lewist, which in the military environment is called "Ros of Death".

Focus found out how dangerous this substance is and how it acts on the human body. Luisete is a combat poisonous substance that is obtained from acetylene and trichlorist arsenic. It was first synthesized by the American chemist Winford Lewis in the first half of the twentieth century, which, as a result of experiments, received, in fact, one of the strongest poisonous gases of his time. Substance Luiseit is a dark brown fluid with the smell of geranium.

During its creation, it turned out that the fluid has the ability to evaporate quickly and as easy to condensed, so lugsit was also called "dew of death". The fact is that due to inhalation of high concentration or penetration of poisonous substance through the skin, a person inevitably dies. In this case, the substance is able to penetrate the materials of protective suits and gas mask.

The toxicity of leuisitis is such that it affects the cardiovascular, peripheral and central nervous systems, respiratory organs, gastrointestinal tract. Combat poisonous substance (boron) has almost no period of hidden action-signs of lesions are manifested within 3-5 minutes after it gets on the skin or into the body.

Inhalation of vapors or aerosol luiseitis, the upper respiratory tract is first and foremost affected, which is manifested after a short period of hidden action in the form of cough, sneezing, discharge from the nose. Severe poisoning is accompanied by nausea, headache, loss of voice, vomiting, general malaise. Staying for 15 minutes in an atmosphere containing a lion at a concentration of 0. 01 mg per liter of air leads to redness of the mucous membranes and swelling of the eyelids.

At higher concentrations there is burning in the eyes, tears, spasms of the eyelids. Severe damage to the respiratory organs by luisitis causes pulmonary edema, but if a person has not died in the next day, then there is necrotic pneumonia. The entry of lewisitis on the skin leads to redness, swelling, at higher concentrations on the skin appear blisters. The deadly dose for the human body is 20 mg per 1 kg of weight.

Getting into the gastrointestinal tract causes abundant salivation and vomiting, accompanied by acute pain, a drop in blood pressure, damage to the internal organs. The deadly dose of luise when it enters its body is 5-10 mg per 1 kg of weight. In 2017, the Russian military reported that the last reserves of Bohr Luise were allegedly destroyed.

"The last Russian facility for storage and destruction of chemical weapons" Kizner "has been completed today the destruction of chemical ammunition, equipped with a poisonous substance Luiseit," said Colonel-General Valery Kapashin. However, according to Professor of the Institute of Chemistry of Saratov State University Volodymyr Sevostyanov, it is much more difficult to destroy the levele than to produce, since its destruction threatens explosion and fire.
