The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation declares that Russian soldiers fighting in Ukraine are admitted to hospitals mainly because of mine and explosive injuries, and not because of the excellent work of the Armed Forces.

This was invented by the head of the Main Military Medical Department of the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, Dmytro Trishkin, writes the Kremlin's propaganda ZMi.

Thus, the Russian official states that the remaining cases of hospitalization of military personnel are related to diseases, injuries and gunshot wounds. 

"As before, as it was before,

70%

are mine-explosive injuries,

10%

are diseases,

10%

are gunshot wounds,

10%

are injuries. The proportions are very clear," he said.

He claims that there are special medical units that work directly in the combat zone.

There, the invaders are already provided with specialized assistance, because "sometimes there is absolutely no time to evacuate the patient even to the border hospital."

Losses of Russia for 9 months of war

The 295th day of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine continues.

As of December 14, the total combat losses among the personnel of the Russian army are about 96,000. 

It is worth noting that Newsweek previously wrote that 

Russia lost

 about 100,000 soldiers in a full-scale war with Ukraine.

That is, it is believed that these losses are twice the number of dead American servicemen in Vietnam.

At the same time, military expert Oleg Zhdanov noted that Russia lost a record number of generals in Ukraine during 9 months of full-scale war.

"To lose 13 generals in nine months of war is nonsense, it's a record for the Guinness Book," Zhdanov emphasized.
