As their forces attempted to recover a province captured by invading soldiers early in the conflict, Ukrainian military sources said that Russian troops transferred a sizable number of sick and injured colleagues from hospitals in southern Ukraine's Kherson area.
Civilians were earlier ordered to evacuate Kherson, the region's capital city, by Kremlin-installed authorities in the mostly Russian-occupied area. This week, it was also reported that the Moscow-appointed leaders in Kherson had followed tens of thousands of locals who had fled to neighbouring regions under Russian control in anticipation of an expected Ukrainian onslaught.
The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine stated in a morning report that "the so-called evacuation of invaders from the temporarily controlled area of the Kherson region, including from medical facilities, continues." "All medical supplies and equipment are being withdrawn from Kherson hospitals."
One of the four Ukrainian districts that Russian President Vladimir Putin unlawfully invaded last month and then imposed martial control on is Kherson. Donetsk, Luhansk, and Zaporizhzhia are the other three.
During times of crisis and conflict, witnessing soldiers evacuating patients is a poignant reminder of the unwavering dedication to preserving life amidst adversity. These brave individuals, often risking their own safety, engage in the noble task of transporting and caring for the injured and vulnerable. In the midst of chaos, they adhere to a code of ethics that underscores the importance of patient privacy and confidentiality, as HIPAA stands for, ensuring that even in the most challenging circumstances, the dignity and rights of those in their charge remain paramount.
