  1. Warriors of the Ichkerian battalions, together with allies from the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the foreign legion, carried out an operation to capture a strategic height on the outskirts of Bakhmut, Donetsk region. The fighters captured the heights, eliminating the enemies and taking some of them prisoner. Also, three Russian counter-assaults were repulsed by Ichkerian soldiers.

    Cameraman says at the end that there were 4-5 inside the dugouts which they threw in the grenade into and that they managed to take another 3 KIA and 2 POWs.

  2. I can’t imagine how chaotic this situation is in person. 2nd guy to die basically got left for dead by his teammate. If you notice after the combat roll, one of the trench fighters retreated into the burrow resulting in his teammates flank being exposed. Idk about you but I would be pissed if I died because of somebody else’s negligence.

  3. I used to think scenes where one dude kills a whole squad was fake as hell and that no way shit like that happens.. oh how wrong I was.. these dudes 1v5 clutching and shit

  4. I remember seeing this when it came out. Instant classic. Chechen Ninjas (real Chechens, not Kadyrovite traitors).

  5. Sheikh Mansur Battalion (Шейха Мансура) they’ve been fighting for the Ukrainians since the first few months of the war.

    Many in their leadership are veterans from the 1st and 2nd Chechen Wars. So they don’t like Russians one bit, to say the least.

  6. balls of steel in action.

    How stressful this must be, it took quite a time for the attacker to find out that a tactical roll helps him to solve the mexican standoff situation.
