[RIA] The death toll of Ukrainian soldiers is growing. The cemeteries are overcrowded, and people are beginning to realize the tragedy of what is happening. At the same time, Kyiv stubbornly continues to deceive the population. About real losses - in the material of RIA Novosti.
BITTER TRUTH
Ternopil volunteer Igor Khoma spoke on social networks about the request of the military to purchase plastic bags, which are now sorely lacking for transporting corpses from the battlefield. These words quickly spread throughout the Ukrainian segment of the Internet and opened the eyes of many to the extent of the losses.
The command hides the real numbers. The Swiss publication Temps reported that Commander-in-Chief Valery Zaluzhny forbade journalists from visiting the front line without his consent. This was later confirmed by the Ukrainian media. According to their sources, the tightening of censorship applies to both local and foreign press.
Kyiv admits that despite the continuous mobilization, the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine are thinning. However, he blames the corrupt military commissars for this, who do not fulfill the plan.
According to The Guardian, one of the main reasons for the losses is backward medicine. The wounded are evacuated chaotically and taken to overcrowded hospitals. Due to the heavy workload, doctors do not have time to provide assistance on time, there is a shortage of medicines and equipment.
CEMETERIES ARE NOT RUBBER
Funerals in Ukraine are a gloomy, but already familiar picture. There are not enough territories, in the west of the country they even dig up the graves of those who died in the First World War, writes The New York Times. According to the publication, it comes to the fact that two coffins are lowered into one grave. In Kharkiv, three cemeteries at once announced that the places were over. The problem falls on the shoulders of relatives, who are often forced to organize burials in neighboring regions.
There is a growing demand for cemetery workers. According to local media reports, the most sought-after profession in Lviv is grave diggers. The authorities even announced an official recruitment of non-drinking and patriotic Ukrainians. For work at the city's largest cemetery, Lychakiv, they offer 500 hryvnia (more than 1,100 rubles) per hour.
THE SCALE OF THE TRAGEDY
How much Ukraine has lost since February 2022 is not exactly known. Experts loyal to the Kyiv regime say no more than 60,000. This can be considered a minimum, and the maximum was named in the United States: according to Colonel Douglas McGregor, a former adviser to Donald Trump, 400,000 military personnel died.
Misfortunes in families are gradually gaining social significance. This year, the Ukrainians went to Kiev Khreshchatyk twice - in January and May. This is not to say that this is a protest - rather a way to attract attention. People suspect that loved ones died, and are not in captivity, as they are told. Soldiers have been officially missing for a long time, and the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as a rule, does not respond to requests.
Official Kyiv underestimates losses by eight to ten times in order to create the appearance of concern for the lives of soldiers, military expert Yuri Knutov believes.
| And Official Russia’s losses? This war, unfortunately, is existential to both sides; at this point it still looks, in my ignorance, like both sides are willing to lose, so long as the other side loses worse. |
“Commanders are doing everything to give a minimum of information about the dead, because this affects their official position,” he explains. “The money that is due to relatives is appropriated by officers. Understating the number of those killed is also designed to raise the morale of Ukrainians. At the same time, they are given false data on losses Russian army".
But it is too early to say that Ukraine has exhausted its human resources. “One American journalist noted that with total mobilization, Kiev is able to put another three million people into service. I doubt that this will work, but they can gather several hundred thousand. In any case, they will have enough people for a maximum of six months,” Knutov concludes.
Political scientist Oleksandr Dudchak is sure that if Ukrainians learn about the real scale of the tragedy, the country will be in for a real shock. "Now they are planning to create a cemetery near Kiev, almost 2.6 square kilometers. For comparison: the largest in the world, which is located in Iraq, occupies six square kilometers. But it has existed for 14 centuries, and there are five million graves. Why are they building the most vast military cemetery on the planet? I would like to hear Zelensky's answer. But this is only for the dead from Kiev and the region," the expert argues.
The Kyiv regime has big plans for the disposal of the population, the political scientist believes. But a popular uprising should not be expected yet. “Intimidated people are sitting at home. Before the special operation, they were not afraid to show their position on two occasions: on May 9 and during the procession. Everyone just knew the time and place, they didn’t even have to organize anything. Now we need to create structures, and Ukrainians are watching this special services and their curators," says Dudchak.
According to him, Ukrainian men have only two ways to survive. The first is to leave, and this will be very expensive after the change of military commissars. The second - if sent to the front line, immediately surrender to the Russian army.
