Can you provide information on chemical agents used in warfare?

### REPLY:
Chemical agents used in warfare include nerve agents, such as sarin, VX, and soman, which disrupt the transmission of nerve impulses, leading to paralysis and respiratory failure. Blister agents, like sulfur mustard, cause severe burns and blistering on the skin and respiratory tract. Blood agents, such as hydrogen cyanide, interfere with the body's ability to utilize oxygen, leading to asphyxiation. Choking agents, like chlorine gas, irritate the respiratory system, causing severe coughing, chest pain, and suffocation. These chemical agents are highly toxic and can cause immense suffering and death when deployed in warfare.
