A fourth member of the Ukrainian delegation who was exposed to the same chemical agents did not experience any symptoms, according to Bellingcat.

Western officials are trying to determine whether the poisoning was carried out using a chemical or biological agent or by a type of electromagnetic radiation attack, according to the Journal.
