Ukrzaliznytsia, the state railway operator of Ukraine, has recently bolstered its fleet of medical evacuation wagons, adding two new units to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
This expansion brings the total to 66 specialized wagons, with plans to introduce four more by the year's end. These wagons are crucial for the rapid evacuation and transportation of wounded soldiers, offering capabilities for comprehensive medical care—including emergency surgeries and resuscitation—while in transit.
The efficacy of these mobile medical units stems from their sophisticated onboard facilities, which include artificial lung ventilation systems, blood transfusion services, cardiac monitors, and other vital medical equipment, all powered by dedicated generators.
