On February 21, a soldier from the 12th Azov Brigade received urgent medical aid after sustaining a serious shrapnel injury to the neck, according to a post by Azov Media.

With significant blood loss and challenging evacuation conditions, medics turned to an alternative solution—delivering blood via drone to the position.

The timely delivery allowed fellow soldiers to administer a transfusion before the wounded fighter was evacuated for further medical care. His condition has since been stabilized, and doctors are continuing treatment.

This event highlights the adaptability of medical teams in difficult environments.

“Soon, we will share the full story of the evacuation of ‘Red’ under extremely difficult conditions,” Azov stated.

Previously, it was reported how medics are holding Ukraine’s frontline together.
