Russia builds complexes to store bodies of military killed in Ukraine

The Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine's Defense Ministry reported this. 

In Russia, complexes are being built in Kursk and Rostov-on-Don to sort and store the bodies of soldiers who died in the war against Ukraine. Each of these facilities will cover an area of more than 4000 square meters and will be equipped with special areas for investigations and research.

The complexes will include refrigerated warehouses with 1,000 slots, warehouses with coffins and funeral supplies, and mourning rooms.

It is noted that the total construction cost will be over RUB 600 million in Rostov-on-Don and over RUB 800 million in Kursk. The cost of refrigeration equipment for each complex is estimated at over a billion rubles.

The intelligence assures that the Russian army is unable to cope with the flow of liquidated military personnel in Ukraine.

“The construction of these complexes in Russia confirms the fact that Putin's regime is sending its occupation army to a deadly conveyor belt, but cannot cope with the flow of dead,” the statement says. 

The Main Intelligence Directorate reminds that every Russian soldier who has not committed war crimes has the opportunity to surrender. “Otherwise, a refrigerator awaits him at one of the sorting bases for corpses in Russia.”
