Germany preparing for 1,000 wounded troops a day in the event of war with Russia - London Business News | Londonlovesbusiness.com
"Germany's Armed Forces are preparing for war with Russia and are planning how to treat 1,000 wounded troops a day in the event that a large-scale conflict between NATO and Russia breaks out. There have been many warnings that war could break out from 2029, even though the Kremlin has rejected these warnings. Over the past few weeks there has been an uptick in deliberate violations of NATO airspace in the Baltics and Poland, which is raising fears that a possible invasion or an attack on the alliance could happen next."
"Hoffman said that Germany is reshaping their medical training and are gaining more knowledge from Ukraine. Hoffman said, "The nature of warfare has changed dramatically in Ukraine," compared to traditional wars such as Iraq and Afghanistan which saw blast wounds from Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and gunshots. Drone warfare has intensified and Ukrainian soldiers are describing the frontline as the "kill zone" due to the unmanned aerial vehicles which quickly destroy their targets which are being piloted remotely."
"Germany's Surgeon General Ralf Hoffmann said the number of wounded soldiers will depend on the intensity of the conflict and the munitions that would be used by Russia. Czech President warns Europe is on the 'brink of conflict' Hoffman told Reuters in an interview, "Realistically, we are talking about a figure of around 1,000 wounded troops per day." The full-scale invasion of Ukraine is the largest conflict since World War Two, and since the war started European armies have been preparing for war as result of Vladimir Putin's conflict on Ukraine."
Germany is preparing medical capacity to manage roughly 1,000 wounded soldiers per day in the event of a large-scale conflict with Russia. Expected casualty numbers will depend on conflict intensity and the types of munitions employed. European militaries have increased readiness since the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and Germany is reshaping medical training while incorporating lessons learned from Ukrainian experience. Drone warfare has intensified and created frontline "kill zones," complicating evacuation of the wounded. The German military plans to convert trains and buses into mobile hospitals and aims to establish about 15,000 hospital beds for casualty care. Increased NATO airspace violations in the Baltics and Poland have raised regional tensions.
