Ukrainian ambassador: Russia ‘handing out gas masks’ ahead of potential chemical attack

"Russian forces are distributing “gas masks” among their troops in eastern Ukraine, according
to a senior Ukrainian official who suggested that Russian forces might orchestrate a chemical attack under false pretenses.

Ambassador Oksana Markarova told reporters at the Ukrainian Embassy in Washington that “occupation forces are also handing out, actively, gas masks to local militants and the Russian military in Donetsk Oblast,” citing Ukrainian intelligence reports." WE
