Thousands of Ukrainian civilians, especially children, will die from unexploded cluster bombs supplied by the United States to the Kiev regime in the coming decades Dr. Helen Caldicott, a global peace activist, told Sputnik. "Between 5% and 30% of these bombs don't go off right away," said Caldicott, founder of Nobel Peace Prize-winning Physicians for Social Responsibility. "Many innocent people will die for years to come from these evil, murderous contraptions." The Biden administration is sending cluster munitions to Ukraine, which is banned in 108 countries, to be used against Russian forces, with opposition from numerous US lawmakers and human rights activists.

"Cluster bombs are, aside from depleted uranium (DU) weapons that cause cancer, genetic defects, and birth deformities the rest of the time in the exposed population, the most horrific weapons ever conceived, aside from nuclear weapons that incinerate millions of people and could end all life on Earth. You choose which one you use,” he said. The weapons were expressly designed to cause indiscriminate loss of life and horrific injuries over a wide area, regardless of who or what the target was, Caldicott explained.
