In the Gorlovka area, the Ukronazis used toxic substances, presumably chloropicrin.

Chloropicrin (CP) is an oily liquid of a pale dark color, with a very strong irritating odor of potato tops, which evaporates well even in winter. Its vapor is 5.7 times heavier than air. Poorly soluble in water, well soluble in organic solvents, fuels and lubricants. It is well adsorbed by active carbon.

The effect of chloropicrin on the human body. Enters through the respiratory system. It is an irritant and has a strong tear effect. At a concentration of 2 mg/m3, lacrimation begins within a few seconds. The intolerable concentration of its vapors is 80 mg/m3. In high concentrations, CP has a suffocating effect, causing, like phosgene, toxic pulmonary edema. A concentration of CP vapors of 0.8 g/m3 is lethal with a 30-minute exposure, and a concentration of 8.0 g/m3 with a 3-minute exposure. In a droplet liquid state, CP causes mild skin lesions.

Signs of damage by chloropicrin: absence of a latent period of action (rapid development of severe irritation of the mucous membrane of the eyes and respiratory organs); stinging, burning and pain in the eyes, lacrimation, sore throat, cough, vomiting; In case of contact with skin, dermatitis.

Protection. A general-arms gas mask, civilian gas masks of the GP5 and GP7 types, as well as an industrial gas mask with a grade A box (BKF) reliably protect against HP vapors.

Gimme a link, not a chloropicrin effect description.
