"NSC spokesman John Kirby on Wednesday dismissed the Kremlin's concerns about the depleted uranium munitions during a briefing with journalists. "Certainly, we would let the U.K. speak for itself in terms of what sovereign decisions they're going to make about providing ammunition," Kirby said.

"But make no mistake: This is yet another strawman through which the Russians are driving a stake. This kind of ammunition is fairly commonplace, [and has] been in use for decades."

"I think what's really going on here is Russia just doesn't want Ukraine to continue to take out its tanks and render them inoperative," Kirby added."

"Depleted uranium is uranium with a lower content of the fissile isotope ²³⁵ U than natural uranium. Natural uranium contains about 0.72% ²³⁵ U, while the DU used by the U.S. Department of Defense contains 0.3% ²³⁵ U or less. "

Could one mistake a Depleted Uranium explosion from tactical (or experimental) nuclear explosion?
Is there foolproof way to distinguish one from the other? From how far, after what delay, and under what atmospheric situation?
