Since World War II, between 40,000 and 60,000 tons of chemical weapons have fallen to the bottom of the Baltic Sea. Conventional weapons, such as landmines, account for hundreds of thousands of tons more. Both weapons are toxic, but their disposal can be difficult under international law.

This conclusion was reached by Conflict Intelligence Team (CIT) analysts after analyzing all confirmed cases of civilian deaths and injuries on both sides of the front, Logos Press reported.
