The Ukrainian Health Ministry has issued a statement reporting at least 270 people have died in the ongoing fighting in eastern Ukraine, with 225 killed in Donetsk and 45 killed in Luhansk.
The ministry said 15 women and 14 children were among the slain. This overall toll is far lower than Ukraine’s military has claimed, as at one point they claimed 300 killed in 24 hours.
The Health Ministry seemed open to the idea their figure was an undercount, saying it only included people brought to Health Ministry facilities and morgues, and not any bodies that may have been removed by rebel fighters.
The offensive continues, primarily centered around Slovyansk and Kramatorsk, neighboring cities in Donetsk’s north. Reports from Slovyansk suggest most of the civilians have fled after weeks of shelling.
The Ukrainian Health Ministry has control of hospitals and morgues in the Eastern zone?
Maybe they found out about government shelling destroying and damaging their installations in Slavyansk and the area?
After all no hospital, no morgue, no accurate reporting of civilian casualties.
And this IS what it''s all about, concern for civilian casualties?
Sounds like things are going better and better for the Ukrainians. Getting the civilians out of the towns removes one problem for the military and drives a further wedge between them and the rebels.
What are you?
