#Douma Chemical Massacre 2018 Revisited, p. 2: the chemical and toxicological evidence. Short thread. Chlorine Presence: Probably. Loc. 2 visual: frost. Chem. returns consistent, but perhaps low. Some questions addressed (trace levels/no release?). libyancivilwar.blogspot.com/2023/02/douma-…
No chlorine level can well explain 35 cases of sudden death or immobilization. Chlorine only burns, in bad cases eventually causing suffocation. People usually escape it. Swift unconsciousness or paralysis is a rare fluke, outside #Syria allegations. But here it's needed 35 times
Swift release is blamed, over 1,000ppm after 3 min. So quick lung melt & fastest death, likely blackout in as little as 30 seconds. But that's also bloody & short on foam, while victims have lots of blood-free foam. They should have very red eyes, but no red at all is seen.
IIT has "reasonable grounds" to think victims could seek higher ground w/no limits, but ran into more gas instead, then kept going, into some apartments, etc. and THEN that thing that doesn't happen happened REAL QUICK & it's suddenly "impossible" to take one step back. 4/4 & FIN

The #Donbass shelling that provoked Russia's invasion, pt.1. Start: Ukraine's plans & buildup from March 2021 for "peculiarities" of "de-occupation." New 🇺🇦 shelling then to 18 Feb. and some of the return fire analyzed, emphasis on #OSCE monitoring. 1/5 libyancivilwar.blogspot.com/2023/01/donbas…
2/5 People moved back into homes in #Donetsk repaired from old shelling, 2 weeks before 1/Nov/21 attack damaged them again. 18 shells, 122mm, prob. from NW. OSCE app. never tries to investigate, maps impacts late as 2 Nov. w/fudged trajectory.
3/5 1 Dec. RU complains half of Ukraine's army surrounds DPR & LPR. Pause in shelling, Dec-Jan, then electric substation hit 29 Jan. from NW, western-made 60mm shells. OSCE might observe/map the attack, but differently, and app. doesn't try to investigate, says nothing.
