1/ Russian soldiers are reported to be causing chaos in military hospitals, threatening to blow themselves up with grenades, attacking and attempting to rape other patients, robbing patients, drinking, starting fights and calling prostitutes to their wards. ⬇️ 
2/ The VChK-OGPU Telegram channel reports on a series of cases in which hospitals have been seriously disrupted by misbehaving soldiers. The situation is reported to be deteriorating, as hospitals are overflowing with thousands of wounded men evacuated from Ukraine.
3/ In one of the most dramatic incidents, a military hospital near Solnechnogorsk near Moscow had to be stormed by security forces after a soldier threatened to detonate three grenades he had smuggled in. Hospitals across the region will now be searched for hidden weapons.
4/ The same hospital was also the site of a soldier's attempted murder of another man. The victim, a contract soldier called Sergei Bankin (pictured), was stabbed by a convicted criminal turned soldier named Yevgeny Shevtsov who had a grudge against Bankin.
5/ Shevtsov is said to have come to Bankin's ward in the middle of the night and stabbed him while he was sleeping, causing serious injuries. Bankin had to have a damaged organ removed and is in a serious condition. Shevtsov is being sent back to the front lines.
6/ Civilians are also at risk, as wounded soldiers are also being treated in civilian hospitals. 31-year-old Alexander Ivanov, another soldier with multiple criminal convictions, was sent to a hospital for war veterans in Zhilino, which treats civilians as well.
7/ After 'cleaning out' at least four wards, stealing money and phones from patients, Ivanov attempted to rape an elderly woman on ward 303. He stripped and beat her before fleeing from the hospital. Police eventually caught him and handed him over to the military authorities.
8/ Soldiers at the same hospital are also reported to have called prostitutes to their wards. VChK-OGPU reports that "a woman with severe alcohol poisoning, who came to the servicemen on call, was recently urgently evacuated from the hospital in Zhilino." /end
