RT: ‘Radioactive cloud’ threatening western Europe – Russian security chief
The hazard was produced by depleted uranium munitions destroyed in Ukraine, Nikolay Patrushev has claimed
The destruction of depleted uranium shells in Ukraine has produced a radioactive cloud which has been blown toward Western Europe, the secretary of the Russian Security Council, Nikolay Patrushev, has claimed.
The UK has supplied this type of munition to Ukraine to be fired from British-made Challenger tanks. The senior official revealed the purported threat during a government meeting on Friday, in which he accused the US of manipulating its allies to provide “help” to other nations that results in harm being done to the recipients.
“They ‘helped’ Ukraine this way too, applied pressure to its satellites to supply depleted uranium munitions. Their destruction resulted in a radioactive cloud moving towards Western Europe. They have detected an increase in radiation in Poland,” Patrushev stated.

WNU Editor: You would think that after Secretary of the Russian Security Council Nikolay Patrushev issued this nuclear warning there will be an official and public reaction to it.
But as of this posting there has been no comment from any Western official. Zero coverage from the Western media. And no comment from the Ukraine government.
But on Ukraine social media it is a different story.
Many are worried and are pressing the Kyiv government to provide more information and assurances that there is no need for concern.
