Expired medicines sold to residents in occupied part of Donetsk region

In the occupied areas of Donetsk region, residents are being treated with expired pills delivered every two months by mobile stalls.

This was reported on Telegram by the Center for National Resistance, according to Ukrinform.

“In the temporarily occupied part of Donetsk region, instead of proper medical care, residents receive so-called ‘mobile first-aid kits’ every few months. In some villages, such as Amvrosiivka, the van stays for only 30 minutes. The selection is pitiful—bandages, iodine, and a few packs of questionable pills. Essential medications are either unavailable or expired, yet sold at triple the normal price. This is not assistance, but a mockery of care,” the statement reads.

The Center for National Resistance stressed that “only after de-occupation will a proper healthcare system be restored, and these ‘vans with iodine’ will serve as evidence of the occupiers’ crimes.”

Earlier, Ukrinform reported that nine communities in the Donetsk region will face a winter without heating amid continued hostilities.
