CLEAN : Novitchok nerve agent a Russian specialit says expert

The video discusses Novichok nerve agents, developed in the former Soviet Union to bypass chemical weapons treaties. These agents consist of two non-toxic components that form a nerve agent when mixed. Novichok is more severe than previous agents and comes in an ultrafine powder. Symptoms include salivation, breathing difficulties, and potentially death, but can be treated with antidotes. Novichok degrades quickly in moist environments, reducing long-term effects.
