Original Note:
DU rounds aren't toxic. There are probably some health issues associated with handling them, but this article greatly exagerates the danger. https://www.publichealth.va.gov/exposures/depleted_uranium/ DU rounds are used by many different countries and aren't banned by any treaty. Russia has and uses DU rounds as well. https://www.newsweek.com/russia-depleted-uranium-munitions-uk-military-aid-tank-armor-1790756
