rocket launcher has been found

It's been brought in by the Russians, probably the same device that brought down Malaysian Airlines flight 17

Looks like tube from some sort of a Light Anti Tank weapon (LAW).

 

Once fired, the tube is disposable. They can't be reloaded and used again.

 

That said, the "empty cases" are normally accounted for and kept or disposed off securely. We always kept a number, suitably weighted, to hang on people to stop them getting too frisky. Most infantrymen will carry one as part of their "load".

Looks more like a homemade toy, than an actual war weapon.

Yes They look like toys, but they're not, and many single use rocket launchers are actually made of cardboard
