: There have been photos of the trenches with knee-deep puddles.
Kuzyk continus.......: “These are absolutely real photos, because there is no time to build drainage in the trenches. And there is no one to do it. Everything is done by hand, everything is done under fire. The rains have passed. Today is the first day without rain, but then and yesterday when it fell, all the water flowed into the trenches. And the shelling was such that it was impossible to get out of the trench, so the guys were constantly wet for a day or two. Plus the temperature is like this. Many are contused, many with pneumonia.”
Mud season is coming to an end this week in the North of the Ukraine, with freezing temperatures day and night. Next week is forecast for the South.
