“50 percent die due to alcohol - accidents, ammunition explosions, inadequate assessment of the situation in battle,” notes the volunteer. “Officially, they are presented as those who died from shelling. At first we sinned by taking the guys vodka for lunch. But then we saw that 50 grams was not enough. Therefore, the remaining five bottles were hidden and brought back to Lviv. Some volunteers still make this mistake.”
