A public inquiry into the tragic 2018 death of a British woman, Dawn Sturgess, who was poisoned by a Soviet-developed nerve agent, has uncovered shocking revelations. The lead counsel for the inquiry disclosed that the vial Sturgess unwittingly opened contained enough poison to kill thousands of people.
Sturgess and her partner fell ill after coming into contact with a discarded perfume bottle containing the deadly nerve agent Novichok in the town of Amesbury, England. Despite spraying the contents on her wrist, Sturgess tragically passed away a few days later, while her partner survived the ordeal.
