Russia has been accused of deploying phosphorous bombs in Ukraine, raising worries that Vladimir Putin would employ chemical weapons. In the eastern city of Kra, the footage shows what seems to be white phosphorus burning violently on the ground.

White phosphorus fires deeply into tissue, is inhaled as smoke, and is ingested, all of which cause damage and death. Oleksiy Biloshytskiy, the police head of Kramatorsk, shared a video of debris burning on the ground after being touched with a shovel.

Vladimir Putin Is Accused of Using Chemical Weapons in "War Crime"

The footage was shot in a location that serves as the headquarters for Ukraine's Joint Forces Operation. Meanwhile, on Tuesday, footage of phosphorus above Kyiv's northwestern suburbs was broadcast.

In the darkness over Ukraine's capital, the chemical can be seen exploding, The Sun reported. As Putin's invasion falters, Western officials are increasingly fearful that a desperate Putin would resort to chemical weapons.

It comes as NATO head Jens Stoltenberg warned Russia not to use chemical weapons in Ukraine. According to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, the US has concluded that Russian forces committed war crimes in Ukraine and will endeavor to prosecute the perpetrators. He claimed evidence of indiscriminate or intentional assaults on populations, as well as the devastation of residential complexes, schools, hospitals, shopping malls, and other locations.

A scary Russian propaganda film spreading over the weekend showed deadly thermobaric missiles capable of destroying human organs. Russian ships in the Black and Caspian Seas launched cruise missile assaults on Ukraine on Saturday and fired hypersonic missiles from Crimean airspace, as per Mirror.

In the Nikolaev area of southern Ukraine, one of the strikes destroyed a big fuel storage facility, while another damaged an armored vehicle repair factory. As he prepared to leave for Europe on Wednesday for a NATO meeting, US President Joe Biden described the use of chemical weapons as a "serious threat."

The United States has also reaffirmed its warning that Russia may be planning a "false flag" strike to legitimize the use of chemical weapons. Biden has stated that Russia's allegation that Ukraine possesses biological and chemical weapons strongly indicates that Putin intends to use them.

According to Daily Mail, Stoltenberg also accused China of supporting Russia's attack on Ukraine by spreading "blatant lies," and warned Beijing against providing material support to Moscow's military effort.

China, which has not denounced Russia's invasion and has criticized Western sanctions, supported Moscow on Wednesday, calling it an "essential member" of the G20 after the US threatened to expel Moscow. Last week, Biden cautioned his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping that providing backing to Russia during its invasion of Ukraine would have consequences.
