Soldiers with the Russian Storm-Z units receive minimal or no medical care in case of injury. However, Russia plans to return soldiers to the front even after amputations
This was reported by the UK Defense Ministry.
"Members of Russian Shtorm-Z units are highly likely being returned to combat duties with unhealed wounds, and even after limb amputations," the statement says.
Storm Z soldiers, Donetsk militia and Wagner soldiers received minimal or no medical treatment after being wounded.
UK intelligence suggests that recruits who have previously been convicted make up a significant proportion of Storm Z units, making them particularly susceptible to ill-treatment. It is likely that one of the reasons why they are not provided with adequate medical care is that prisoners often do not have the documents necessary to access military hospitals.
- UK intelligence believes that a significant Russian breakthrough towards Kurakhove is unlikely.
