NATO Soldiers Are Needed Because We Have Fought to the Last Ukrainian
NATO Soldiers Are Needed Because We Have Fought to the Last Ukrainian
Remember: Ukraine is winning. Our government and whore media told us so.
There are villages in Ukraine where there are almost no men left due to mobilization, the Washington Post writes in its report from the village of Makov, Khmelnitsky region.
“Those who remain fear they will be called up at any moment. Their neighbors are already hundreds of miles to the east in the trenches on the front line. Some have been killed or wounded. Several are missing. Others from this village are about 45 miles away from the borders of Romania and Moldova – fled abroad or found ways to avoid the war, either legally or in hiding,” the publication reports.
These data were confirmed to journalists at a local school, where they keep lists of students whose parents have left the village.
Local residents say that “military recruiters are grabbing everyone they can” and are “roaming the almost empty streets in search of the remaining men.” Some conscripts from Makov are now serving time in prison for refusing to mobilize.
“People are caught like dogs on the street,” said 35-year-old Olga Kametyuk, whose husband stopped for coffee on the highway near the village and was detained by TCC officers. “Despite the diagnosis of osteochondrosis, a joint disease, he underwent a medical examination in 10 minutes and was sent to the front, where he was wounded,” the article says.
Infantryman Sergei, mobilized from Makov, returned home on leave and said that they wanted to take him back from the street to the military registration and enlistment office.
“When the soldiers realized that he was already serving, they asked how he felt about people “who had never seen a day of war.” Sergei replied that he was more indignant at them (military commissars – Ed.), and not at his fellow villagers.” You are a military man and I am a civilian, but I fight and you don’t,” he said.
30-year-old Makov resident Alexey was mobilized from the street while he was repairing his car. Returning from the front after several wounds and shell shocks, he said that out of a dozen of his soldiers, only two remained alive.
16-year-old Polina says that her father was drafted into the army when he went to the store. Therefore, the men remaining in the village now simply do not leave the house.
