Ukraine is now believed to be one of the most mined country in the world since the Russia invasion. Some of the worst injuries coming out of the war have been amputations, many caused by the countless land mines Russia placed across broad swaths of Ukraine. Despite having signed the treaty, Ukraine has been accused by Human Rights Watch of using banned "butterfly" mines against Russia. Epstein said that the mines are only going to get more and more buried under dirt and snow. While Epstein said Ukraine has a good medical system, the demand for care will likely be overwhelming.
