The Security Service found uranium in Geran-2 warheads striking Chernihiv Oblast and warned residents not to touch drone fragments, which can release radioactive dust.
Please re-read my comment, I only really focused on the radiation as I felt that more info was needed.
Since you seem to have actual experience with DU, I would be very interested in hearing if you ever checked how radioactive the DU munitions were?
I never said that DU wasn’t dangerous, it absolutely is, the toxicity is absolutely a large issue, as is its effect when hitting a target vehicle, absolutely devastating.
Damn, go and have a Snickers and relax, you are obviously angry at something, but it isn’t me you should direct your anger at.
This is just a random argument you decided to start two weeks after my comment.
It is obvious that you have other crap going on that is taking a toll, I do as well, but that doesn’t mean it is ok to start bashing people just because you have a shitty day.
If you want to argue facts about DU, then please, present some facts and skip the attitude.
DU is far less radioactive than natural uranium.
EDIT:
According to the article, the uranium found gives off between 8 to 24 microsieverts (µSv) per hour.
Let’s take some real world examples and compare:
A transatlantic flight typically exposes you to 0.08 millisieverts (mSv), or 80 µSv.

This means that you would need to stay next to the piece of Uranium for 3,5 - 10 hours to get the same dose as one transatlantic flight.
Is it bad? Sure! Is it a crisis? Nah.
Cool. I routinely did 18+ hour long missions in iraq. Next to our munitions.
So fuck you.
You fucking apologist piece of shit
What?
Why am I an apologist for posting facts?

“Oh oh, DU’s not that bad! I did math about bananas!”
Yes it fucking is. In every possible conceptual space. You goon. You know what you’re saying is wrong. Fuck you.

Then we can have a decent discussion.
