Ukraine's Chief Military Psychiatrist Fired After Uncovering Horrifying Secret

Ukraine's Defense Ministry has sacked chief military psychiatrist Oleh Druz, who told lawmakers that 93% of veterans from the conflict in the country's east need treatment for mental health issues. Radio Sputnik contributor Vladimir Filippov says Druz's remarks, and Kiev's reaction, are a testament to the senselessness of the country's civil war.

Last week, Ukrainian Defense Minister Stepan Poltorak dismissed Colonel Oleh Druz, the head of the psychiatry clinic of the Main Military Clinical Hospital "in connection with the unsatisfactory fulfillment of his official duties." The dismissal followed remarks by the top military psychiatrist at a round table of parliamentary committees, where Druz revealed that over 90% of the veterans of Kiev's military operation in Donbass require mental help and pose a potential danger to society.

Commenting on the scandal, Radio Sputnik contributor Vladimir Filippov said that Druz's real problem was that he decided to tell the truth.

The journalist recalled that according to Kiev's own official statistics, "nine out of ten participants of the fighting in the Donbass have medical and social problems, while a third are diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. Experts say a state-run program of support for vets is needed, but for now this is something done mainly on a voluntary basis."

In his remarks before lawmakers, Druz warned that veterans' disorders include heightened levels of aggression, decreased ability to return to civilian work, the development and exacerbation of chronic diseases, growing rates of alcoholism and drug addiction, shortened life expectancy, and increased suicide rates. Statistics reveal that 63 veterans took their own lives in 2016 alone.

In light of these horrifying figures, Filippov suggested that Kiev's reaction was highly "original."

"They simply dismissed the chief psychiatrist. Why? Probably because he said too much. Someone might think that among the [Donbass vets] are completely mentally unstable people. In fact, to shoot one's fellow citizens is already beyond the realm of a normal worldview. And if one kills unarmed civilians, children and the elderly, what kinds of mental state can one speak of?"

According to the analyst, the hard truth is that Ukraine's authorities couldn't care less about its vets, with the government allocating precious little money for them, most of its defense funds either stolen outright or allocated to weapons purchases.

Filippov suggested that as far as Kiev is concerned, the only problem posed by the vets is the political danger they pose to the government - "to their soft chairs and their wealth. They have no plans to share with the veterans, hence the need to drive their problems deep out of sight and out of mind. No one needs them. They are cannon fodder, spent material."

"That's why Poltorak got so anxious," the analyst stressed. "Because the 93% figure is a military secret - top-secret information! Capable of undermining the military capability of the regime," Filippov concluded.

How a Religious Jew Aids the Ukrainian Army
The Minister of Defense of Ukraine Stepan Poltorak published on his Facebook page a rare photo of a young Ukrainian officer in a black Jewish kippah.
The photo featured Natan Khazin, one of creators and commanders of the "Aerorozvidka" (aerial reconnaissance) unit. Khazin became one of the symbols of Jewish support for Ukraine during and after the "Revolution of Dignity" in 2014-2016.
Khazin is a religious Jew, well known in the Central Brodsky Synagogue in Kyiv. After the beginning of the events on the ??idan in January 2014, Khazin managed one of the "hundreds" ("sotnya") units of the Maidan. In particular, he managed an operation to release the "Ukrainian House" on Khreshchatyk. After the victory of the Maidan, Khazin left for the ??? (anti-terrorist operation) zone and participated in the liberation of the city of Mariupol from Russian-backed separatists in the spring of 2014.
When military operations began in Donbas, Khazin and his friends Yaroslav Gonchar, Volodymyr Kochetkov-Sukach, and Dmytro Lisenbart created the volunteer "Aerorozvidka" unit. At the time they did not have either sufficient technical equipment or support from the Ministry of Defense.
The "Aerorozvidka" unit is now an official Ukrainian subdivision that conducts reconnaissance by means of pilotless flying vehicles and video monitoring complexes. Similar units are used in the armies of the U.S., Great Britain, and Israel. Currently the "Aerorozvidka" unit monitors on-line around the clock three fourths of the battlefront by video cameras that are co-ordinated into one system, and this increases the efficiency of military operations considerably. The "Aerorozvidka" unit has saved the lives of hundreds of Ukrainian fighters.
For this very reason Ukraine's defense minister visited Khazin's unit and rewarded many soldiers.
After this meeting Poltorak wrote in his Facebook page: "Pleasantly staggered by those results that they have already succeeded in attaining. During the meeting rewarded servicemen and volunteers. Ready to render all-round support of the unit. They work for the sake of a extremely important goal, and I am, in turn, ready to work with them!"
In response to my question about what he exactly showed Stepan Poltorak, Khazin answered: "I showed the Minister a video that, because of unit, enabled a hostile target to be struck from the air."
Khazin, who received adviser status to the chief of the general staff of the Ukrainian army in November 2016, constantly advocates the strengthening of collaboration between Ukraine and Israel, and between the Ukrainian and Jewish peoples.
