    That's not "chemical rocket" as in "a rocket powered by chemicals" (the usual kind, as contrasted with a nuclear one). That's putting chemical weapons on a rocket.

    Which is a war crime. It's not as if Russia has shied away from war crimes in the past, so it's plausible. But it's also an extremely serious accusation which merits a bit more evidence than the article provides.
