Excellent reporting. Medical care under battlefield conditions in Ukraine deserves much more coverage than it appears to be receiving. As terrible as war is, medical advances in battlefield medicine have historically led to very useful advances in trauma therapy in the civilian community.
I bet any country sending some medics to assist in Ukrainian hospitals would gain invaluable experience. Not on the frontline - just in common military hospitals doing surgery and rehabilitation.
In January 1915 by grandfather was blown out of his trench by a German shell somewhere south of Ypres. Pieces of shrapnel worked their way to the surface of his back for the rest of his life. My dad used to have to cut out and remove the fragments.
We live with bleeding hearts while huge stocks of weapons are immobilized in Poland on the pretext of some unknown shortage in the USA. I have no nerve to read the reports about killed and wounded that could be easily saved by mere stopping to lie.
