The morgues are clogged with bodies. Russia confidently "disposes" the male population of the occupied Donbass, using it as a living fuel of war

Coffin Flow: Cemetery in the occupied Donbass increases rapidly at the expense of local mobilized (photos: Reuters/Alexander Ermochenko) every third mobilized in the LDNR resident or injured. A huge percentage of losses is a consequence of the Kremlin's military policy, as well as the unpreparedness of the "Donbass" soldiers for at least 20,000 ORDLO inhabitants, whom the Russians sent to fight against Ukraine, killed, wounded or captured.

Such estimates are given by Ukrainian military expert Konstantin Mashovets. The share of losses among the representatives of what is called "LDNR" in Russia is extremely high - up to 30%, he adds that about 74-75 thousand men were mobilized from the occupied areas of Donbass for the war.

Referring to certain data, Mashovets says that the Russian military command requires from the occupation administrations of Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine an increase in the "mobilization reserve" by another 10-11 thousand people. "So the number of killed will only grow," the expert adds. The occupying "power" of the ORDLO does not report about the amount of losses, saying that "everything goes on plan.

" What fully copies Moscow's behavior, which also does not reveal the number of soldiers killed in the war. But according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces, during a full-scale invasion-from February 24 to August 4-the army of the aggressor country lost 41. 5 thousand servicemen in Ukraine. This figure does not take into account the mobilized from the LDNR, as well as representatives of different "private" military structures - PEC.

The Pentagon considers the loss of Russians smaller - about 15 thousand, but it is a conservative opinion. And in the British defense department, generally agreed with the estimates of the Ukrainian General Staff. In any case, Russian losses are large, but in terms of their army, they are noticeably smaller than among LDNR soldiers. The reason is that the Kremlin does not particularly protect its military, but as a resource they are more valuable than mobilized from the ORDLO.

Therefore, the latter are thrown into hell without spending time and money on their training, equipment and security. A similar attitude to the residents of occupied areas of Lugansk and Donetsk regions is obvious to all who have encountered them during the fighting. In the days of defense of Severodonetsk Petro Kuzik, one of its participants, the commander of the battalion Svoboda, said NV that the first to assault Ukrainian positions were mobilized from Lugansk and Donetsk.
