Russia has threatened to intensify attacks in Ukraine after the British government announced it would supply Ukraine with a type of ammunition that Moscow falsely claims to be nuclear components.
Britain’s Defense Ministry showed on Monday it would attack Ukraine with armor-piercing projectiles containing depleted uranium.
These projectiles were developed during the U. S. Cold War. The U. S. government is trying to destroy Soviet tanks, adding the same T-72 tanks Ukraine now faces in its attempt to break a stalemate in the east.
Depleted uranium is a by-product of the uranium enrichment procedure for the creation of nuclear weapons. Projectiles retain some radioactive properties, but they can’t generate a nuclear reaction like a nuclear weapon would, said Edward Geist, a nuclear expert and policy researcher at RAND. .
That didn’t stop the Russians from shouting that the shells were opening the door to further escalation. In the past, they warned that war could escalate to the use of nuclear weapons.
The British ministry and the White House have rejected the Russian allegations. But munitions carry dangers even if it is a nuclear weapon.
