The main reason for the absence of medical evacuation is simple and gruesome: The fighting is just too intense.
It can take a day or even two for soldiers to get in and out of the fiercest fighting spots – killing any hopes of medics coming to save the wounded.
Left alone at the positions, the soldiers often have to pull out their comrades on their own under heavy shelling, sometimes walking five to seven kilometers to the nearest evacuation points, where vehicles take them to makeshift hospitals.
When soldiers carry their wounded out, the group is easy to spot – and it immediately becomes easy prey to Russian first-person view (FPV) drones and artillery.
It’s not looking good for Ukraine. :(
Russian propaganda and kompromat is working as intended. Putin has proven that the cohesion of western democratic states can be broken with almost no effort, as a result we will see a completely unprecedented rise in territory grabbing and fascist dictatorships over the next 20 years.
I mean, cutting checks to all the republicans might make him break a sweat. He’s got a big payroll.
You may find them surprisingly affordable, sir.
It’s why the US needs to resolve its congress rep situation. If they fixed it, you would need to buy off like 2.2x more reps lol
This isn’t propaganda. It’s reality.
Ukraine cannot win without foreign troops on the ground. They never had the capability.
I think this point was not to claim this article is propaganda, but rather that Russia and other dictatorships can continue to invade other countries with minor consequences because they can spin whatever narrative they need and sow division in the worlds political powers by spreading lies and mistruths on fringe news channels and social media.

Where have I seen this before…
Basically every world power is a reactionary right-wing oligarchy with either a bourgeoisie “democracy” or straight up dictatorship. So yeah you and we see it all the time.
This article is not propaganda, yes. I am saying the previous two years of subversive efforts by Putin have successfully seized up the political war support machine that would have otherwise made Russia’s offensive a lost cause.
Honestly it isn’t looking good for any of us.
We’ll probably be fine.
Don’t believe those who say Ukraine falling is the end of the world just like you shouldn’t believe them when they said Ukraine could win.
This is a lesson in propaganda and indoctrination for us all. Only fools think these are tools exclusive to their enemies.
Ukraine falling means the war moves on to other countries. Russia can’t afford to not have a foreign enemy at this point. If it runs out of enemies, it implodes. By sacrificing ukraine, we get nothing in return.
War is, and has always been about logistics and material. Russia has China propping them up now. The west cannot send money to fight bombs. Ukrainian forces need air support and artillery shells, full stop.
Until the Ukrainian Forces get a substantial arms package, Russia will keep throwing unskilled bodies at Ukrainian trenches.
This is how Russian doctrine has always worked. Throw bodies at the problem until there are no more bodies. Encourage women to have more children. Rinse and repeat.
But NATO promised they would provide!
NATO won’t do enough because they’ve depended on the US for too long. Now, half the government is held hostage by Russian assets and they will let the world burn for a taste of power and wealth.
It’s starting to be like it was for russia the first winter
