Britain Says Russia Suffers a Combat Medical Supply Crisis Over Ukrainian Victims

MADRID, July 10 (EUROPA PRESS) –

British Intelligence Services had indicated this Monday that Russia was “almost certain” to suffer a crisis of combat medical supplies due to the high casualty toll since the start of the invasion of Ukraine, which was unleashed in February 2022.

“Russia is almost certainly suffering from a crisis of combat medical supplies after suffering an average of around 400 casualties a day for 17 months,” they said, according to a statement published by the UK’s Ministry of Defence via its Twitter account.

As such, they have stated that “the flow of military casualties may have undermined the normal supply of civilian medical services, especially in the border region with Ukraine.” “It is likely that many military hospitals were reserved for casualties among the officers,” he added.

“As the head of the combat medicine training training division of the Kalashnikov company said, up to a 50 percent chance of combat deaths could be prevented with proper first aid,” they stressed.

In this regard, the British Intelligence Service has emphasized that “the extremely slow evacuation of victims, combined with the inappropriate use of combat tourniquets, will be the leading cause of preventable deaths and amputations” within the framework of combat.
