Only after the sappers: as the "shield" team seeks and identifies the fallen soldiers of the Armed Forces (video)

To find a fallen fighter, use the coordinates obtained from brothers. However, the body can be found even a kilometer from the place where it was last seen alive. Representatives of the search team on the shield showed work on the search for fallen soldiers in the village of Mazanivka on the border between Donetsk and Kharkiv regions. It was here in the spring of 2022 that fierce battles between the Armed Forces and the Russian invaders took place.

Meanwhile, the front line has moved to the east: the enemy tries to break into Kupyansk and Lyman. The searches in the liberated territories are discussed in the "Public" report. The interlocutor of journalists said that the search for the dead begins when shelling stops. For example, go to forests and villages in Donetsk region - the team goes to the site of search in a special car. They are now engaged in three paratroopers of the 25th Airborne Brigade, to hear on video.

When searching, you need to look carefully at your feet: the terrain is littered with explosive objects, in particular, mines, stretch marks for transport and more. Therefore, before being in a certain area, she is first surveyed by sappers, searching. The work is done on the coordinates obtained from the brothers of the fallen soldiers - indicate the place where people were seen alive for the last time. However, these coordinates are only guidelines that can really help.

"As practice shows, it means little. They can be there and 100 meters and a kilometer from here," says the search engine. They inspect the territory, inspect military equipment. For example, a armored vehicle gets into the frame, so trifized that it is not possible to say whose Armed Forces or the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. Around - Angar's fragments. The "shield" team inspects the terrain, looking for possible bodies.

Searches noted that the best period for work is a leafless time of year: late autumn, winter, early spring. Having coordinates, the team can find the remains and even find documents. However, this is not enough to identify - you need to identify DNA. Often, the bodies of dead fighters are dismembered. Sometimes these are the consequences of animals, sometimes evidence of crimes of Russian invaders. To find them, the team has to strain the senses - to "sniff" the dead.

It is easier in cases of mass burials, representatives "on the shield" note, mentioning the situation in Izium. Then they found a fighter's grave with a yellow-blue bracelet: they found out that it was a fighter of the Armed Forces Sergey Sova, and a bracelet-a gift from a son. During a conversation with journalists, they described the case when they found the body of a "laid" soldier.

At first they found pants with bones, began to inspect the terrain, found other parts of the body - made three bags. In the end, they found out that this is one person. Journalists, when preparing the plot, spoke with the family of Yevgeny, Irina and Nasty Karas from Mariupol. Eugene joined the Armed Forces. Irina and schoolgirl Nastya were able to leave Mariupol. Then they learned about the death of the husband and father and were waiting for 14 months to receive confirmation.

It should be noted that according to the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, the forces of defense are successful on four shades of the front. In particular, it is possible to displace the enemy south of Bakhmut, west of Donetsk, west of coal and south of Orikhov. At the same time, analysts, the Institute of War Study noted that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation did not export the wounded and dead from the battlefield: doctors do not go to "zero", and the Russians do not carry their own.
