The Cause of the Leak has yet to be determined but some Sources are stating that it may be a Result of Russian Shelling in the Area though this remains Unconfirmed, I will release Updates as this Situation unfolds.

To cover for other chemical agent releases? Ya think?
Why else would there be a sudden pop-up ammonia leak?

Less than 2 days after Russia launched a new disinformation campaign involving accusations of false flag chemical attacks including the use of ammonia in the Ukrainian city of Sumy, there are now reports of an ammonia leak at a chemical plant in Sumy. https://usnews.com/news/world/articles/2022-03-20/ammonia-leak-reported-at-chemicals-plant-in-ukraines-besieged-sumy?src=usn_tw

(19,193 posts)5. An ammonia leak by itself isn't that dangerous.
It sure stinks though, and I suppose if you stood in the fumes of undiluted ammonia for long enough it could kill you.
Let's hope there's not a convenient (for the Russians) chlorine bleach factory nearby. That combination will produce deadly, toxic chlorine gas, hydrochloric acid, liquid hydrazine etc.
Not nice. But the Russians would never do something like that.
