According to the news agency, investigators found ‘a syringe with white opaque substance of uncertain origin’ during an inspection of, presumably, the headquarters of Ukrainian militants in a bomb shelter. As reported, there were also medicines on the table near the syringe.

The agency quotes a representative of the People's Militia of the Donetsk People’s Republic who accompanied investigators during their inspection of the Azovstal territory. He believes ‘there may be either a narcotic or an explosive substance inside [the syringe]’.
