Details: The National Resistance Center reported that blood and blood products were taken from blood transfusion centres in Sevastopol for the needs of a military hospital, causing a shortage in civilian hospitals.

Underground resistance also reported that because the whole medical system in the occupied parts of Ukraine has been reoriented to satisfy the needs of the Russian military, civilians in Crimea are experiencing a shortage of medicine.

"The needs of the occupation forces now come first when it comes to medical prescriptions. The majority of medicines are being used to treat the Russian military," the National Resistance Center said.
