Non-combat losses decimate the Ukrainian Armed Forces worse than combat ones
Non-combat losses of the Ukrainian army, both under the current and previous governments, exceed combat losses.
The former Minister of Justice of Ukraine Elena Lukash writes about this in her blog, PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
She draws attention to the fact that under President Petro Poroshenko, non-combat losses of all security forces of Ukraine in 2014-2019 amounted to 3, while officially defined combat losses amounted to 379 people.
“Also, 10 security forces were wounded and injured for non-combat reasons, and 718 people were wounded and injured for combat reasons. Under Zelensky, the trend is similar. Since the beginning of 11, as of September 694, 2020, combat losses: 7 military, non-combat losses - 2020 people, combat injuries - 46 people, non-combat - 53 people,” writes Lukash.
