Russia has mobile crematoriums in its arsenal that could follow invading forces and “evaporate” dead soldiers, according to a report.
The British Ministry of Defense released video of the trucks that can incinerate bodies one at a time and suggested Wednesday that the Kremlin might deploy them in its war with Ukraine to hide the number of casualties, the Telegraph reported.
“If I was a soldier and knew that my generals had so little faith in me that they followed me around the battlefield with a mobile crematorium, or I was the mother or father of a son, potentially deployed into a combat zone, and my government thought that the way to cover up losses was a mobile crematorium, I’d be deeply, deeply worried,” UK Defense Secretary Ben Wallace told the paper.
“It’s a very chilling side effect of how the Russians view their forces,” he said of the footage first posted back in 2013.

Wallace expects “to see some of the things they’ve done previously” and that the use of a mobile crematorium “probably says everything you need to know about the Russian regime,” according to the Telegraph.
Russian President Vladimir Putin declared war on Ukraine on Thursday and immediately started to launch missiles.
Explosions rocked Kyiv, the country’s capital of 3 million people, and black smoke was seen gushing from the headquarters of Ukraine’s military intelligence. Video footage captured helicopters attacking an airport near Kyiv and attack helicopters hovering over the city’s rooftops.

Dozens of people had been killed so far, Ukrainian officials said.
“Russian treacherously attacked our state in the morning, as Nazi Germany did in #2WW years,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tweeted. “As of today, our countries are on different sides of world history.”
Putin deploys harrowing mobile crematorium death machine to 'evaporate' Russian soldiers
VLADIMIR PUTIN could use a horrific mobile crematorium to "evaporate" Russian soldiers as his invasion into Ukraine rolls on.
Speaking on Wednesday ahead of Vladimir Putin’s decision to launch a country-wide invasion of Ukraine, Mr Wallace said that if Russia instigated any conflict then "we expect to see some of the things they’ve done previously".
In a terrifying analysis, he said: "Previously, they’ve deployed mobile crematoriums to follow troops around the battlefield, which in anyone’s book is chilling.
"If I was a soldier, and knew that my generals had so little faith in me that they followed me around the battlefield in a mobile crematorium...
"Or
I was the mother or a father of a son, potentially deployed into a
combat zone, and my government thought that the way to cover up loss was
a mobile crematorium...
"I’d be deeply, deeply worried."
He added how the use of the mobile crematorium is "a very chilling side effect of how the Russians view their forces".
The Defence Secretary, who served as a Captain in the Scots Guards between 1991-1998 noted that for current and former soldiers, the presence of such a machine is a clear sign of your value as a soldier.
He said: "Knowing that trundling behind you is a way to evaporate you if you are killed in battle probably says everything you need to know about the Russian regime."

The chilling images come as a full-scale invasion by Russia from land, sea and air rocked Ukraine on Thursday morning after weeks of threats from Vladimir Putin.
Triggering an era defining war, Russian President gave the orders for the dawn onslaught as he emabarked on his mission of "de-militarisation" and de-Nazification" of Ukraine, both totally false claims.
Heavy bombardments rained down on Kiev and the country's second-largest city of Kharkiv, alongside other locations.
Following the aerial bombardments, troops poured in from the north, east, and south as the scale of the attack was realised but Ukrainian troops fought back and said they had inflicted heavy casualties on the Russians.
