According to a BBC News investigation published in November 2025, α-bromobenzyl cyanide, a World War I-era tear gas also known as camite, was used against protestors by Georgian law enforcement during the 2024–2026 Georgian protests. The BBC investigation found evidence that the camite appeared to have been added to the water in the water cannons used against protesters.
