NATO Announces Plans for ‘MASS Casualty Events’ in Preparation for WWIII

The head of NATO’s logistics command, Lieutenant-General Alexander Sollfran, announced new mass evacuation and rescue plans are being drawn up in preparation for an unavoidable World War Three.

NATO will expand its operational capacity for wounded troops and the heavy battlefield losses against Russia.

Due to Russia’s rockets and missile stockpile, the risk of medical evacuations via aircraft would be too great, meaning troops will need to operate “hospital trains” to transport them from the battlefield.

“The challenge will be to swiftly ensure high-quality care for, in the worst case, a great number of wounded,” Sollfrank said.

Meanwhile, the German military said it expects Russia will attack NATO countries as soon as 2029.

Sollfran is tasked with coordinating the rapid movement of troops and tanks across Europe while performing logistical preparations for munitions storage.

NATO has been grappling with the prospect of a major war ever since Russian President Vladimir Putin invaded Ukraine in early 2022.

Now Sollfrank is coordinating plans for medical evacuations.

Sollfrank said they would need a large network of rail and road evacuations in lieu in order to take soldiers out of harm’s way,

“Air superiority will have to be achieved in the first place,” he told Reuters.

“It will require time to succeed over the entire length and depth of the front line.”

“For planning reasons, all options to take a great number of wounded to medical installations need to be considered, which includes trains but potentially also buses. Differing medical regulations between countries are another hurdle to overcome.”

The creation of a “military medical Schengen” or a special area of free passage through which sensitive medications such as narcotics and strong painkillers could be transported to injured troops.

NATO launched its largest campaign of military drills since the Cold War as tensions between Russia and the West continue to increase to unprecedented levels.

The suite of NATO exercises took place in early 2024, involving 90,000 troops from more than 30 allied and partner countries.

“The exercises were spread across the first six months of the year and saw the armies, navies and air forces of dozens of countries engage in war games on Europe’s southern, northern and eastern flanks,” reports explain.

“NATO is also said to have drawn up plans for how to deploy American troops to the frontlines of Europe in the event of an all-out conflict with Russia.”

“New ‘land corridors’ are being carved out to quickly funnel soldiers through central Europe without local bureaucratic impediments, allowing NATO forces to pounce in an instant should Putin’s devastating war in Ukraine move further west.”
