The Main Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has released new evidence of systemic problems and a callous attitude toward personnel within the armed forces of the Russian Federation. According to Ukrainian intelligence, the Russian command is deploying military personnel with diagnosed HIV to perform direct combat tasks on the front lines. Notably, these actions are carried out in a direct ultimatum form and in defiance of official medical conclusions by medical boards regarding the complete unfitness of such soldiers for further service. ### Deployment Details and Frontline Medical Crisis According to the intelligence data obtained, the case involves soldiers from the 1st Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade of the Russian army, operating in one of the hottest sectors of the front — the Pokrovsk direction. One of these Russian soldiers has been officially diagnosed with HIV. Medical experts recall that the lack of regular intake of specialized medications for this diagnosis inevitably leads to severe complications and a rapid loss of combat capability. Nevertheless, despite the verdict of the military-medical commission issued back in February of this year, which recognized the occupier as unfit, the command continued to throw him into assault operations. ### Bureaucratic Lawlessness and Desertion Charges In the audio conversation intercepted by HUR, the Russian soldier himself complains about the critical situation: he was officially written off by decision of the medical commission, but failed or was unable to wait for the final paperwork to be completed. As a result of bureaucratic red tape, the unit's command classified his actions as unauthorized abandonment of a unit (AWOL) and put him on the wanted list as a deserter, while simultaneously continuing to use him on the front lines to perform dangerous assault tasks without providing any medical care or drugs. ### Contradictory Data Despite the fact that Ukrainian intelligence and intercepted audio materials indicate a systemic practice of sending sick soldiers into battle after official write-off, the Russian side traditionally provides no official comments on this specific case. Official representatives of the Russian Ministry of Defense do not comment on the status of military personnel with serious and chronic diseases on the front lines, while human rights organizations have repeatedly recorded cases of forced deployment of individuals with medical contraindications to the front, creating colossal internal risks for the Russian army itself. ### Consequences for the Russian Army According to military experts of HUR MOU, such methods of staffing assault units clearly illustrate a deep crisis of medical support, a shortage of personnel, and a complete lack of humanism within the Russian occupying army. The use of sick servicemen on the front lines not only violates basic humanitarian norms, but also creates additional biological and logistical risks within the units themselves, accelerating the degradation and demoralization of the aggressor's armed forces personnel. ## 🔍 Fact-Check Verification - [Россия отправляет на боевые задачи военных с ВИЧ: перехват ГУР](https://www.rbc.ua/ukr/news/rosiya-vidpravlyae-boyovi-zavdannya-viyskovih-1791426899.html) - Данные подтверждены официальным сообщением ГУР МО Украины и публикацией на RBC.ua. ## ❓ FAQ ### Q: Which Russian army unit deployed the HIV-positive soldier? **A:** According to HUR, this concerns the 1st Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade of the Russian army operating in the Pokrovsk direction. ### Q: What was the medical conclusion regarding this serviceman? **A:** Back in February, the military-medical commission recognized him as completely unfit for military service. ### Q: Why was the Russian soldier declared a deserter? **A:** He did not wait for the final paperwork of his discharge to be processed and was accused by the command of unauthorized absence from the unit.
