Executive Summary:




Igor Kirillov, head of Russia’s Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Protection Troops, was killed in Moscow in December 2024, shortly after Ukraine’s Security Service accused him of responsibility for the systematic use of prohibited chemical agents against Ukrainian forces. 



The continuation of chemical attacks after his death suggests that the practice was not dependent on a single commander, but is part of a broader military, production, and logistics system.
