“U.S. officials say they are concerned Russia could be preparing to use chemical or biological weapons in Ukraine after the Russian Defense Ministry accused Ukraine of possibly planning a false-flag chemical weapon attack,” NBC News reports.

An administration official said the U.S. is worried that the Russians are making the claim “to justify a false-flag operation or them using chemical or biological weapons in Ukraine themselves.”

Olga Lautman 🇺🇦@OlgaNYC1211·3hRussia is laying the groundwork for a chemical weapons attack. This is what they did in Syria. Defense Ministry would warn of chemical attack plot by ‘opposition’ and days later one would occur by Assad/Russia. Please I hope people are monitoring this
