CNN has exclusive access to a medical evacuation train used by the Ukrainian army to transport the wounded from near the frontlines to hospitals around the country.

This infirmary on wheels is now a key part of Ukraine 's healthcare system, which has been highly depleted by two and half years of Russia ’s brutal war.

Most cities in eastern Ukraine are struggling to find enough hospital beds to accommodate the almost constant stream of casualties from frontlines.

Even the sickest patients, many of them unconscious, are transferred to far-flung places, often hundreds of miles away.

Children’s drawings and Ukrainian flags are on display in every car, offering some comfort to the bruised and battered passengers.

Each carriage is a self-sustained unit powered by generators an important safety feature.

CNN recently spoke with multiple Ukrainian commanders and officers who said desertion and insubordination is becoming a growing problem, especially among new recruits.
