Helmet cam footage shows how Ukrainian Scouts storm Russian trenches during an operation on rhe eastern front.
During a routine reconnaissance mission, a team of Ukrainian scouts from the 101st Separate Presidential Brigade came across a Russian trench network on the eastern front and decided to storm it.
After the men faced heavier resistance than anticipated, they decided to call it a day and retreat in an organized manner.
However, the next day they returned and launched another assault on the Russian positions.
During this two-day trench-clearing operation, over an hour of helmet-cam footage was recorded.
The Russians defended their position with grenades, mortars, and RPGs, and drones could also be heard over the scene at some stages of the video.
The Ukrainians, on their side, attacked with small arms, rocket launchers, and grenades but more on that in the video.
For this video, I hired a translator who transcribed and translated the audio to add subtitles showing what the soldiers were saying during the operation.
We don’t often get the chance to see a real assault on a Russian trench of this length, and the video documents very well how every meter has to be fought for fiercely.
Although the Ukrainians managed to capture the trench on the second day, they decided to abandon the position due to heavy Russian artillery fire.
