The landing of military field doctors of the Central Military District treats not only the Russian military and the People's Militia of the Luhansk People's Republic (LNR), but also provides comprehensive medical care to the civilian population. At the same time, civilian and military specialists are working together, Alexander Morozov, a correspondent of Izvestia, said on Thursday, June 30.
"Andrey is a fighter of the People's Militia of the LPR, received a shrapnel wound in the head during the assault on Ukrainian positions. He was brought to this frontline hospital by military doctors of the group "Brave", they also provided first aid," the journalist said.
According to the commander of the medical battalion, some of the personnel are working in the combat zone. The battalion is equipped with the necessary medical equipment, staffed with doctors and specialists of a narrow profile.
"This is what a military medic's bag looks like: tourniquet, anti-shock, painkillers, bandages. Everything you need to provide full medical care to the wounded on the battlefield," the military commander of Izvestia showed.
A medical armored car enters the hospital at speed. Military medics immediately run to the car. On the radio they reported that inside the car there were soldiers of the LPR who came under fire. One of them has injuries to his hands, he is immediately taken to the operating room, where surgeons work.
The field hospital is equipped with all the necessary equipment: from a 3D ultrasound machine to a clinical laboratory. The medical special forces equipped this hospital with the most modern equipment. The X-ray unit is especially welcome here.
