Now the victims are 46.
Many are killed by the military lymphomas arising after the peace missions abroad. In areas considered at risk "due to the presence of depleted uranium." It is the "people forgotten soldiers, "those who, like also emphasizes the family members of those who" do not have it done. "
"It is a chronicle of the death yesterday of the last military lymphoma probably caused by depleted uranium - Accame complaint Falco, president dell'Anav Faf - this is a young man of 28 who had served in Kosovo and other areas considered at risk because of the presence of depleted uranium. " His name has not yet been announced, "because - as happens following explains the story - the parents have asked for some 'time."
Last but not least the other 45 cases that were recorded in the last fifteen years. "The phenomenon is growing and is increasingly worrying - Accame continues - every day knocking on the door of my association or boys desperate parents seeking help to deal with situations very worrying. " It is not always such as parents or close relatives of soldiers died of cancer. Other times, knocking are the same soldiers who fight against evil. "Yesterday in Bari, a young soldier suffered a severe amputation - Accame continues - and is not, unfortunately, the only case." The numbers provided by dall'Anav Faf and 'military observatory Domenico Leggiero speak of 513 military and currently affected by lymphoma therapy in several cancer centers in Italy. "They are young people who go on going back and forth between a hospital and the other looking to save your skin - said Domenico Leggiero - the data we have developed are truly alarming and telling a growing phenomenon. "Situations in which evil is bound to despair than to economic conditions, such as adding military responsible for the Centre . "Very often the military patients, in addition to losing the health risk of losing work and home to family members because they do not get the compensation now and you can not live with 500 euro per month." Spares no criticism of those who followed the issue in Parliament. "What has been done to date? Little or nothing, and besides, just look at the results of the old commission of inquiry that ended in a stalemate. "Suffice it to read conclusions of the report starting on page 28. "In conclusion - we read - can not help but be noted that the intense work done has not it possible to reach unequivocal conclusions on some of the issues addressed." What then is easily explained. "First, we had to see how the Commission has not yet been able to have reliable data on the number of soldiers in international peacekeeping missions abroad who have developed cancer." That's not all. "Although there has been the ability to make thorough checks on those cases not taken a census, it is likely that some of those who became ill of cancer after taking part in the missions are not included in the Administration of the defense on the basis of which the Commission has drawn up Mandelli. It's not the most reassuring the other party of the final report.
"There remain open the questions to which you previously mentioned about the long-term damage to the health of soldiers and local residents that may result from exposure to fine and ultrafine particles that are dispersed into the environment during combustion at very high temperatures, temperatures that determine the impact of depleted uranium shells (DU) against the affected areas and disposal of large quantities of ammunition inside the so-called "stove." A situation
that, as hopes Leggiero, should improve with the new committee. "Many young soldiers and civilians - is to know Sen. Lidia Menapace, president of the commission of inquiry into depleted uranium palamentare - you are sick, ignorant of the effects of using depleted uranium shells and the dispersion of nanoparticles heavy minerals produced by the explosions. " And while Senator ensures' best efforts, staff and the Commission, "continues the mobilization of associations. And it is no coincidence then that some relatives of the victims have decided to sue the state. They want to know and learn. Above all, avoid "evil miserable face other victims. "
