Ukrainian troops carried out an operation behind enemy lines and managed to destroy a number of enemy vehicles in one of the frontline sectors, the 28th Separate Mechanized Brigade named after the Knights of the Winter Campaign reports.
"For a long time, this footage couldn't be shown. The reconnaissance unit was working behind enemy lines. It worked quietly. Just as it should - silence brings success, and our reconnaissance is a blessing for strike crews. Today we can share it," the video caption says.
It is noted that thanks to the effective work of the scouts, a self-propelled gun, a howitzer, and three armored fighting vehicles (AFVs) with infantry were destroyed.
"The enemy thought they were hidden. Thought they couldn't be seen. But in modern combat, the one who sees first survives. So we saw. We marked. The strike crews destroyed. Thanks to the eyes of our reconnaissance company," the Ukrainian military noted.
The exact location of the operation is not disclosed. However, the brigade emphasized that the video demonstrates professionalism, cold calculation, and superiority over the enemy.
