<p>Russia's use of chemicals as a method of warfare in Ukraine is a breach of its
obligations under the UN Chemical Weapons Convention. The UK has provided Ukraine
with assistance against potential chemical attacks, including medical countermeasures
and protection. We have supported the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical
Weapons to assist Ukraine to detect the use of chemicals on the battlefield.</p><p>We
have provided £6.2 million of capacity-building support to Ukraine's domestic work
to document, investigate, and prosecute war crimes. Since 2022, we have provided £2.3
million in additional contributions to the International Criminal Court, in addition
to our £13.2 million annual budget contribution for 2024.</p>
