April 22, 1915 at 5:00PM, near Ypres France, the Germans released 168 tons of chlorine gas against the French.
The above statement is not entirely correct, the first recorded gas attack was by the French in August 1914, they used tear gas grenades containing xylyl bromide on the Germans. The Second Battle of Ypres is the first use of gas with intent to cause harm rather than just an irritant.
Actually, the first is statement is correct about the part that the Germans released a gas.. that person said chlorine (idk if the Germans released that) but i know that they released a gas called mustard gas at the Russians ;) lol all three answers u got r different.. XD
