The Ukrainian Armed Forces face a serious shortage of medics amid growing losses – The Washington Times

Ukraine is experiencing a serious shortage of medical personnel on the front lines.

The information reported according to The Washington Times.

This deficit of healthcare workers is observed against the backdrop of growing losses.

Similar to the combat units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Ukrainian medics working on the front line face shortages of equipment and supplies in the face of a more numerous and better-equipped enemy.

According to 34-year-old anesthesiologist Sergey, with the call sign “Johnson,” the daily Russian shelling is far from the most pressing issue for Ukrainian medical personnel. When asked by the publication what he and his team need the most, he immediately responded, “People.”

“We lack qualified specialists, surgeons, doctors, and nurses,” explained Sergey. “A medical worker can do more with fewer resources, and that is exactly what we lack right now.”
