Ural Trucks With Bodies Of Russian Soldiers Arrive In Belarus; Doctors Forced To Sign NDA

As Russian troops face severe resistance from Ukrainian forces, reports emerge that bodies of Russian soldiers are filling up hospitals in Belarus, a prominent Russian ally.

According to residents of Belarus, corpses of Russians killed in the war are being brought to Belarus in trucks. They are then sent back home by train or plane, reported Radio Free Europe (RFE).

A report, quoting local sources, said the people were taken aback by the number of corpses piled up inside the morgues in Belarusian cities of Mozyr and Gomel.

"There were unrealistically many corpses! The people who were at the Mozyr station just happened to be shocked by the number of corpses loaded on the train. People started shooting video, but the military caught up with them and ordered to remove it," a resident of Mozyr was quoted by Radio Free Europe.

The resident, who chose to remain anonymous, added that a cemetery in the village of Kamenka near Mozyr was cordoned off, with guards posted there. "Maybe they started burying Russians there. Especially near Kamenka - Bokov, there is an airfield and a large camp of Russians," he added.

The residents of Gomel said that PAZ buses with wounded Russians and Ural trucks with corpses are a common sight in the regional center. "In the Urals, their corpses are taken to the airport, and from there to Russia," a Gomel resident told the news outlet. Uralskiy Avtomobilnyi Zavod or the Ural is a major Russian manufacturer of off-road trucks.

The war has also left the doctors in Belarus in a fix, said the report. Almost all doctors are forced to treat Russian soldiers.

Not only are they forced to sign Non-Disclosure Agreements, but the doctors have also been threatened with job losses if caught spreading information about Russian soldiers.

"Doctors do not tell anything - they took a non-disclosure agreement, they threaten not to extend the contract. There are not enough surgeons. Earlier, the corpses were transported by ambulances and loaded on Russian trains. After someone made a video about it and it went on the Internet, the bodies were loaded at night so as not to attract attention," a resident was quoted by Radio Svaboda, a sister organization of RFE.

Recently, a video showing the unloading of wounded or dead Russian servicemen at the Mozyr railway station had gone viral.

Appeals are also doing rounds on Belarusian social media seeking help for injured Russians. Many Instagram accounts urge Mozyr residents to bring them diapers, wet wipes, soap, shampoo, water, cookies, clothes, etc., to the hospital, the report added.
