Severely injured Russian soldiers are being returned to the frontline in
Ukraine without the approval of military doctors, independent Russian news outlet
Agentstvo reported on Thursday.
- Wounded Russian soldiers are being sent to Ukraine to fight despite their injuries, according to a report.
- Soldiers with damaged lungs and shrapnel wounds have been returned to the frontline.
- The presidential Human Rights Council in Russia is investigating the matter, a council member said.
In one instance, two Russian soldiers with punctured lungs were sent into combat, instead of to a military medical commission for examination, Valentina Melnikova, executive secretary of the Union of the Committees of Soldiers' Mothers of Russia, said, per Agentstvo.
In another example, soldiers with shrapnel wounds were returned to fight, without the shrapnel being removed, according to a translation of the article by independent media outlet
Meduza.
There are "an unacceptable number" of documented cases of commanders sidestepping military doctors and instead sending wounded soldiers straight from the hospital to the frontline, Melnikova told Agentstvo, per a Meduza translation.
There have also been cases of soldiers receiving treatment for ulcers, heart attacks, and strokes being sent back to Ukraine, she said.
