Azov storms and clears enemy positions. Destruction of occupiers from the first person [+ENG subs]

“Did you turn on the GoPro? This is a steam room”. Assault on enemy positions.

An assault group of fighters from the 12th Azov Brigade set out to clear enemy strongholds. A small arms battle broke out between the Azov fighters and the occupiers at a distance of less than 10 meters.

As a result of the assault, all occupiers were eliminated. The enemy positions were taken under the control of Azov fighters.

The new video features footage, recorded on Azov’s fighters action cameras, clearing the Russian trenches and eliminating enemy infantry in dugouts.

The backdrop here also includes Ukraine facing a cold winter in the coming months as its energy infrastructure has been severely damaged by Russian drone and missile strikes. Ukraine’s Sumy and Poltava regions were hit by blackouts last week due to Russian air strikes.

Russia’s massive shelling of infrastructure, transmission networks and power generation facilities means Ukraine’s daily electricity consumption limit for the 2024-2025 winter will be reduced to just eight hours, warned Oleksii Brekht, acting CEO of the national grid Ukrenergo.

“The coming winter is expected to be the biggest test for the Ukrainian population since Russia’s military invasion of Ukraine in 2022,” Viktor Kovalenko, a geopolitical analyst and former Ukrainian soldier, told Newsweek. “The damage caused by Russian missile strikes to Ukrainian power plants is so severe that they will not be repaired in the near future, and some may not be rebuilt at all.”

“We expect that life in major urban areas such as Zaporizhzhia and Kharkiv could be severely affected this winter, with displacement and severe hunger. In these places, it is not excluded that there will be ghost towns, with no people left,” he added.

In addition to these developments, the situation in Ukraine has become even more bleak as Russia has steadily seized more land in Donetsk Oblast in recent months. In Russia’s Kursk province, the Russian army has also regained significant territory lost to Kiev after an offensive in early August, to the point where a Ukrainian major said the “situation is tense.”
