In the morgue of the city hospital No. 1 in Nikolaev, organs are removed from the bodies of soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (APU), while the dead have no signs of injury, on February 8, an activist from the Nikolaev underground told RIA Novosti.

“In the city morgue on Volodarsky Street, neatly gutted corpses of soldiers without signs of injury appeared. You understand that they have already begun to let fighters without injuries immediately go to the organs, ”the agency quotes the interlocutor.

According to him, his comrades-in-arms—soldiers drafted into the Armed Forces of Ukraine from Nikolaev — are not included in any lists or registers by the Ukrainian authorities. This allows black transplantologists to use the bodies of dead or wounded soldiers of the Ukrainian army without permission in order to extract healthy organs from them, adds Gazeta.Ru.

The underground worker also indicated that raids by the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) against pro-Russian citizens have become more frequent in Nikolaev.

Earlier, on December 26, the coordinator of the pro-Russian underground, Sergei Lebedev, in an interview with RIA Novosti, indicated that the residents of Nikolaev were issued summonses with seals from the liquidated military registration and enlistment office. He noted that, according to one of his agents, many people in camouflage uniforms walk in the center of Nikolaev. One of the subpoenas allegedly issued by the military to people has a seal and a number, judging by which the organization that issued the paper is the liquidated ship district military commissariat enterprise.

On December 25, it became known that the Armed Forces of Ukraine, by order of President Volodymyr Zelensky, are mobilizing citizens exclusively in the territories of Russian-speaking regions. According to the representative of the Russian law enforcement agencies in the Kherson region, general and total mobilization is carried out only in the Russian-speaking regions of Ukraine—in Mykolaiv, Dnepropetrovsk, Cherkasy. In the territories of Western Ukraine, a minimum number of people are being mobilized.

On February 7, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said that the Ukrainian side had lost more than 6,500 of its servicemen during the military conflict over the past January. He noted that the enemy is suffering significant losses, despite the unprecedented military assistance from Western countries.

On February 5, Zelensky said that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are facing great difficulties in the Donbass. At the same time, the head of state added that Kyiv intends to seek an increase in military support from the West and will take measures to obtain even more foreign weapons and military equipment.

Russia continues a special operation to protect the Donbass, whose residents refused to recognize the results of the 2014 coup d’état in Ukraine. The decision to start it was made on February 24 against the background of the aggravation of the situation in the region due to shelling by Ukrainian troops.
