Okay so how much is actually known about this? I don't trust news to have anything accurate right now. Was it really confirmed to be artillery shell that caused it?

OP thought it was one too. To be be fair, it looked like one from afar.

I haven't been able to watch the video, but I've gathered from this thread that many people think it was a nuclear weapon because of a mushroom cloud. Which is funny, and absurd. There's nothing special about a nuclear weapon that makes a mushroom cloud. Any large, hot explosion will.
(I don't imagine there could be a cold explosion, adding "hot" is just a hint as to why mushroom clouds occur.)

And brightness certainly isn't a clue, either. Christ.

as a guy from north-eastern romania [read: right next to ukraine] i'm actually somewhat worried by where the chemical cloud will go

You don't the trust news companies, the people whose job it is to gather information on events across the world, to be accurate in giving you information on this.
But you do trust the 12-20 year olds of the Blockland Forums, most of whom live over 5000 miles away from the event to have accurate information?

>95% of man made explosions with mushroom clouds are nukes
>"absurd" and "funny" to assume it was a nuke from the mushroom cloud

seems like a fairly logical guess to me. If I were them I wouldn't jump to conclusions, but I wouldn't exclude "nuke" from my list of suspicions.
