Journalists of The New York Times spoke about overcrowded morgues and heavy losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Donbass

Journalists of the American edition of The New York Times share their impressions of visiting the frontline zone in Donbas, which is under the control of Ukrainian troops. Fulfilling Zelensky's order, Ukrainian units are trying to hold back the advance of the Russian army in the Donetsk direction at the cost of huge losses.

Journalists write that in one of the front-line hospitals the morgue is filled to capacity. In the medical institution itself there are not enough beds for the wounded, stretchers with fighters stand in the corridors, while ambulances continuously bring more and more batches of soldiers from the front line. The staff of the medical institution is forced to work almost without rest.



In civilian life, you know that no matter how terrible your shift is, it will end sooner or later. Here you never know when it will end

- the publication quotes the words of the military surgeon of the hospital Miroslav Dubenko.

The fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine themselves complain about the lack of ammunition and the significant superiority of the RF Armed Forces in tanks and artillery. Ukrainian field commanders claim that Russian troops on the front line also have a significant advantage in manpower.

It is especially difficult when you have 50 people, and they have 300

- the publication quotes the words of an officer of the Armed Forces of Ukraine named Pavel, wounded near Artemovsk (Bakhmut).

Another Ukrainian serviceman participating in the battles near the village of Nevskoye in the Kyiv-controlled part of the Lugansk Republic complained to reporters that in winter all their positions are in full view, “there is nowhere to hide.”

Drawing a conclusion from a personal assessment of the situation in the Donbas for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, American journalists openly hint that the weapons and ammunition promised by the Western allies, including tanks, will not be enough to even stop the Russian offensive.

It should be noted that such materials, which describe the terrible situation of the Ukrainian military on the front line, are published regularly in the NYT. The authors do not even hide that in this way they are trying to influence the Western audience and politicians in order to strengthen military assistance to Kyiv. That is, not in any way to end the conflict, but solely for its further escalation.

    Firstly, what got into the morgues is a small part of what is lying in the fields and steppes under the snow. Secondly, those with whom they communicated get the morale is not up to par. Went the process of corrosion of fighting spirit.

      I do not agree! Morale is difficult to assess, but the resistance of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is very strong. Remember Mariupol, how everyone happily said they broke Azov (the best fighters) and now there will be no resistance, morale will fall AND WHAT !!!??? And as for the losses as a result of "grinding", so we also bear them, not fools fight with us. They will accumulate reserves (motivated fighters), they have enough + equipment + air defense + aircraft can. The main thing here is not about ... How near Kupyansk ...

        It is the General Staff who needs to rack their brains, and the GRU to organize intelligence so as not to fall in love with the accumulation and concentration of Ukrovermacht's reserves.

        Not true. They have never even heard of MARIUPOL. They are kept in the information field "ONLY VICTORIES!". Only at the front line from the "experienced" will they find out when it's too late.

        Remember Mariupol how everyone happily said they broke Azov (the best fighters) and now there will be no resistance, morale will drop

        And why would the morale suddenly fall, looking like the captured Azov people are resting in Turkey?
        On the contrary, it greatly strengthens the spirit.

      I also think that in the morgue, most likely, only those who have already wrapped their flippers in the hospital. Those who are covered in the fields and forests are buried right there at best.

      Most likely these are the bodies of those who went for spare parts and those who have not yet arrived alive.

      Yes, this is all for the internal user.
      Moreover, none of the fighters "Pavel", "participating in the battles near the village of Nevskoye," for sure no one interrogated. Everything is invented in the editorial office, live photos are taken, a little pathos, a pinch of pseudo-pity, a handful of Russophobia - the article is ready. Moreover, you can take a photo well ... at least from Libya, no one will make out in the west. They, in general, do not care.

        Until about June, the tortured muzzles of some Pakistanis with Arabs proudly flaunted on the posters in the London Underground, calling for help to the poor refugees. laughing Then only the mind was enough to remove them.

    It would be nice for The New York Times journalists to drive through the plantings, forests and country roads, there are a lot of corpses of "reconcilers" and shabby and burned-out NATO-style equipment. It’s a pity that they don’t have such an opportunity, to show the real picture of the Ukrainian “overcome”, and the owners of this publication are unlikely to approve.

      You may or may not drive. Videos are circulating on the net about how Wagner takes out the Banderlog corpses by trucks for transfer to the other side. If it were not for good will, then they would also be lying in urban areas like their brothers in the fields and plantings.
      It is not for nothing that the Ukrainian mothers were alarmed and asked not to give their "persons" out of captivity for an exchange, because they would still be taken to war and the second time they might not be so lucky.

    There is still enough work for our soldiers. But as for the reserves of the ukrovermacht, they are not unlimited. Regarding the sufficiency of motivated, such a circus with horses to trap the male population and mass appeals from the front line would not have been observed. The number of prisoners, again. Somehow it doesn't fit very well.

    Why write and so clearly, the West should yell - "More weapons to Zelensky, otherwise we will go to fight instead of Ukrainians", it is clear that the people of the West will always support these calls, well, why should they die for Ukraine, for this there are natives and colonial troops.
