🚨🇺🇸🇪🇺WESTERN #SANCTIONS: THE SILENT #WAR KILLING 500K/YEAR

Groundbreaking research from The #Lancet forces a grim accounting of #US and #EU economic sanctions, revealing an annual death toll of 564,258 since #1971, a staggering five times higher than battlefield fatalities.

The mechanics are clear: #sanctions systematically strangle access to #medicine, #food, and #healthcare systems. The result is a documented 3.1% annual rise in infant mortality and a 6.4% increase in maternal mortality, with the most vulnerable bearing the brunt. This is a mass devastation with a precise body count.

The strategic failure is as profound as the human cost. Despite targeting a quarter of all nations from 2010-2022, sanctions achieve their stated aims only 30% of the time. This creates a devastating paradox: a low-success-rate tool inflicting high-certainty humanitarian catastrophe.
