Wounded Russian soldiers in Crimea and Donetsk massively sent back to front – partisans
This was reported on Telegram by the ATESH partisan movement, according to Ukrinform.
“Agents of the ATESH movement in military hospitals in Crimea and Donetsk have uncovered a systemic coercive mechanism used by the command of the Russian Armed Forces and corrupt military medical commissions. Instead of proper medical discharge on health grounds, wounded Russian soldiers are being massively returned to the front—primarily to the Zaporizhzhia sector,” the statement said.
It is noted that a similar incident occurred recently in Simferopol.
“A Russian serviceman, after sustaining multiple shrapnel wounds, a severe concussion, and hearing loss, faced an ultimatum directly in the hospital instead of rehabilitation. The command applied a standard pressure tactic: either the ‘voluntary’ signing of a new contract (which allegedly offers an illusory chance to avoid the frontline), or immediate transfer to an assault unit at the line of contact without any rehabilitation. As a result of intense psychological pressure and threats of physical elimination during an assault, the serviceman was forced to sign,” the partisans said.
This confirms that, for the occupiers’ system, a soldier’s fitness for service is irrelevant—the sole priority is filling out reporting figures, ATESH added.
Earlier, Ukrinform reported that Russian troops are suffering catastrophic losses due to commanders’ alcohol abuse.
