/tass/. The outbreak of the Ebola virus in September 2022 in Uganda could have been caused by the careless treatment of pathogens by American military biologists working in the region. This was stated by the head of the radiation, chemical and biological protection troops of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation Igor Kirillov.
"The Ministry of Health of one of the Central African states is studying the likelihood of an artificial spread of the Ebola virus in September 2022," he said on Friday during a briefing on US military biological activities.
According to Kirillov, the concern is caused by the fact that "the isolated strain of Sudan is completely identical to the virus that circulated in Africa during the 2012 epidemic." "At the same time, the negligent treatment of pathogens by American military biologists who carried out work in this region is considered as one of the versions," said the head of the RCBZ troops.
