Original Note:
The UK military has been using depleted uranium (DU) shells for years. DU is not a nuclear weapon. Its main risk is chemical, rather than radioactive. In high concentrations in the body, uranium can cause kidney failure because of its chemical toxicity, for example. https://news.sky.com/story/amp/what-is-depleted-uranium-radiation-risks-explained-after-putins-warning-to-uk-over-tank-shells-for-ukraine-12840001
