This is how the head of Belarus reacted to Britain's plans to transfer depleted uranium ammunition to Ukraine. "Then Russia will supply us with real uranium ammunition. If they are crazy, then they will give this process a boost.
This is the most terrible and dangerous thing. That's why we need to move away from madness a little bit," Alexander Lukashenko said. The Belarusian dictator also claimed that if these munitions were used, Russia's response would be "terrible."
"As soon as these munitions explode on the positions of Russian troops, you will see that the response will be a terrible lesson for the entire planet. Russia has not only depleted uranium, you know that very well," Alexander Lukashenko added.
The Ministry of Defense of Russia also fears the transfer of such ammunition to Ukraine. "Only one thing can be said here. There are not so many steps...
One more step is passed, and there are fewer and fewer of them left," Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said.
New ammunition
Currently, Alexander Lukashenko and the Russian authorities are using the news about the transfer of depleted uranium ammunition to Ukraine for propaganda purposes. The term "depleted uranium" means a by-product of the radioactive isotope of uranium U-235 release for nuclear power and weapons. After extraction of the active isotope, this metal becomes less radioactive than natural uranium and its ore and has 40% less radiation.

The main military application of depleted uranium is armor-piercing ammunition.
The use of this metal in ammunition is associated with its properties - high weight, density, and pyrophoricity. Due to these characteristics, the shells have a high armor-piercing effect and cause significant armor destruction. In Great Britain, the L26, L27, and L29 rounds are equipped with an armor-piercing core of depleted uranium.
