Russia had send soldiers through a gas pipe in Operation Stream. Some of the survived have severe lung cancer now, the Russian State doesn’t care

  1. I’m only surprised that Russians at home don’t understand cannon fodder missions. Dying for a pointless objective is their whole culture.

  2. I don’t doubt they’ve fallen seriously ill, but I can’t help but wonder if this is not some sort of misinterpretation. Cancer doesn’t normally develop that quickly.

    Exposition to poisonous materials or radiation causes tissue damage, which the organism will attempt to repair. If the damage extends to the DNA, the repair mechanism may produce faulty cells, which (if growing faster than healthy cells) cause cancer over time. But that process takes time. For example, the average onset of cancer after acute radiation sickness caused by ingested alpha radiation emitters is 5 years. And that’s a serious case. Exposition to asbestos or oil fumes causes cancer after ~30 years.

  3. How are those soldiers that dug in and camped around Chernobyl doing these days?

  4. The Russian version of ” Your (Insert injury/sickness here) is not service related.”

    The permanent cure here would be sending those guys into a meat assault.

  5. they fucking smoked in the gas pipe. Like, of course they did, but still…

  6. It’s just russian society. They value human life less than nothing.

  7. Shute it was not healthy but….Lung cancer within 6 months after going to the pipes.

  8. Typical latency period after exposure to a carcinogen is 5–40 years. An exception is leukemia from nuclear exposure, which can develop in as little as 2 years. So I honestly don’t know what’s in those pipelines to cause cancer in under 6 months probably pure propagandium.

  9. Side question: Why is the font type and size different on this message?

  10. Isn’t this like a very, very rapid onset of cancers?

    It takes like, years of smoking, or a decade or more after asbestos exposure to get neoplasms.

    These Gas Pipe Soldiers were just in these pipes a few months ago.

    Any oncologists out there want to explain?

  11. Sometimes, it amazes me how much the oligarchs’ and Stalins’s ideals turned Russians to become so easy and cheap.

    I fear the day this influence of cheap human lives reaches far and wide, I fear for the newer generations most.

  12. Tbf, not one country cares about its citizens. What is strange to me, is that they found people dumb enough to do it. Then I remembered: we’re talking about Russia here

  13. Wish it was just Lung Cancer. Residing in a gas pipeline, the pulmonary damage due to oil particulates is not reversible. One can give chemo to lung cancer. The xrays on these soldiers would be wild.

  14. This zombie won’t understand the reality of the situation in her lifetime

  15. Finding it hard to believe that cancer would manifest that fast after the event.

    I think I remember reading reports about cancer among these people at least a month ago which makes it even more surprising.

  16. > soldiers marched inside a gas pipe for 15 kilometers, 750 meters)

    Well, that’s not good.

    > … and lived in it for another 6 days, waiting
    for the offensive.

    WTF 😳 Six days of breathing that shit?!?

  17. Russia gonna Russia. Sorry bout dead son have state made microwave.

  18. My guess is that Anastasia will fall out of a window soon.

  19. Chernobyl, Kursk, soviets are used to this indifference.

  20. The propaganda is strong.

    I spoke a Ukrainian family, being bombed every day. They have some relatives that live in Russia. When they tell them about the war and russia’s crimes, they just don’t believe it. It’s all staged and the Ukrainians do it themselves.

    So sad.
