russian forces have begun repurposing medical institutions in the temporarily occupied east of Ukraine for military needs, driven by the daily toll of wounded soldiers

The russian military seeks to expand its medical infrastructure as up to 300 occupying troops are wounded each day, the Center for National Resistance (CNR) reports.

Notably, there is a severe shortage of medical facilities available to treat and rehabilitate wounded occupiers. In response, the occupying forces are violating international law by using civilian medical institutions and endangering the local population.
