A poisonous cloud is hanging over Berlin after a chemical factory blaze, with firefighters warning deadly hydrogen cyanide could develop.
Firefighters said sulphuric acid and copper cyanide were stored at the plant and the chemicals ignited, which could create hydrogen cyanide.
People were warned to close all windows and stay inside after the fire hit the firm that makes weapons supplied to Ukraine.
There were 130 firefighters on the site, wearing protective suits.
Moscow media sources rushed to cover the inferno, linking it to the IRIS-T missiles.
The blaze was at Diehl Metal Applications in Berlin’s Lichterfelde district, which is a sister company to the Diehl Defense concern, manufacturer of the deadly IRIS-T.
