The wounded at Azovstal most often die due to infectious gangrene. Antibiotics are running out, there are no opportunities to carry out amputations and generally receive proper medical care after the defeat of a field hospital, on which the Russians dropped multi-ton bombs.. The Azov regiment calls the evacuation of the wounded a top priority and notes that with warming, the bodies of the dead begin to decompose and poison everything. The deputy commander of the regiment, captain Svyatoslav Palamar spoke about the extremely difficult situation in the blocked Mariupol in an interview with BBC Ukraine.
“The wounded must be evacuated as soon as possible.. Today (May 8 - ed.. ) again many killed, wounded. We don't have surgical instruments. Lack of quality medical care.
Palmar complains about promises " The inability to count on help is very demotivating for the fighters under siege, who hold on at the cost of daily human casualties:.
“The most cynical thing is that they give us promises: “Guys, hold out until mid-March, and then help will come”. And nothing. " Nothing. "
“We hope that thanks to journalists and politicians, not all, but those who are really trying to help, we can influence the world, the UN to organize the evacuation of the wounded and the possible extraction of the military garrison located here,” the military man says..
Recall that now a petition created by the wife of Azov commander Denis Prokopenko to the UN and world leaders is circulating in the Ukrainian network calling for the rescue of Ukrainian military and civilians from Azovstal by applying the extraction procedure.

" They shouldn't all die there, so that every year we raise the flag at half-mast in their honor.. They deserve your time to help them survive.. Every minute of delay can cost huge losses for everyone who takes refuge on the territory of the plant,” notes Ekaterina Prokopenko.
