🔴 Ukraine War Update - Ukrainian Special Forces Storm Russian Village • Russias Pokrovsk Offensive

hello and welcome to a new Ukraine war update once again there have been many new developments on the front and a lot of new footage has been released as always please make sure to leave a like and comment this really helps the channel more than you can imagine than you helmet cam footage released by the Ukrainian Special Operations forces YouTube channel shows Ukrainian Special Forces engaged in combat operations in Russia the footage captures the Ukrainian forces clearing a Russian village of remaining Russian troops during the first day of the Ukrainian Invasion into Russia we can see the Ukrainian operators engaging Russian targets with small arms fire during several firefights the men on foot was supported by Humvees who also engaged the Russians with heavy machine guns one of the Humvees was even used to Ram open the door of a warehouse a tactic reminiscent of similar scenes filmed by US forces back then during operation Iraqi Freedom if you remember what I mean the ukrainians also employed psychological warfare by using loudspeakers to broadcast messages to the remaining Russian troops urging them to surrender as We Know by now the Russians in the Border region mostly consisted of untrained conscripts who were taken by surprise when the ukrainians launched their offensives also it seems that in this part of the video the Russians were mostly outnumbered and hiding from the ukrainians who easily cornered them and used grenades against them also the way the Drone was used here shows that the ukrainians had total dominance and control over the area without fearing interference from other Russian elements that might have flanked or engaged them in the open The Surreal and somewhat playful impression that this footage gives off LED some Russian telegram channels to believe believe that the images were staged however I think this video is more likely the result of battle hearten special operators encountering largely under motivated inexperienced and underere equipped conscript so what do you think what you see in this and the following clip is the first footage of the German suppli mod ifv in combat while the mod itself is not on screen we can witness the use of its 20 mm automatic Cannon against Russian positions in the curs region especially in the second clip we can see the red tracers of the rol mk20 rh2 under two automatic Cannon very well I have to say that by the look of the footage the M's Cannon seems to be a bit more accurate than the Bradley's according to Ukraine's Army Chief Ukrainian troops now control nearly 500 square miles of Russia's cursed region recently Ukraine has begun releasing more and more footage from the first days of the invasion into Russia they Declassified short clips of how they prepared the Border region with artillery used breaching vehicles to clear mines and even shared footage of the Downing of a Russian helicopter if you remember we only got pictures of downed helicopters before Ukraine also released additional footage from the battle at the border post where a large group of Russians surrendered the ukrainians used a tank to Shell the post before the Russians decided to give up the reason we are currently only seeing footage from the first few days of the K offensive is that Ukraine is maintaining a tight operational security regime to avoid endangering their forces who continue to operate in hostile territory at this time it seems that the nature of operations in the curs region has changed and Ukraine is now transitioning from a very well executed maneuver Warfare to a defensive stance focusing on fortifying and holding the territory they have captured additionally they have initiated clearance operations to eliminate the last remaining pockets of Russian troops within the territory under their control the use of Challenger two tanks and The Invasion has also been confirmed previously there were only two Russian videos claiming the destruction of two Challenger tanks one by a helicopter and one by a laned drone while neither video clearly showed the outcome it can be assumed that at least one challenge or two was lost this is a pretty interesting video filmed from inside a Ukrainian mrap showing a Ukrainian tank leading an MP section into battle while being supported by dismounted infantry the tank is advancing on a road while using its main Cannon to engage Russian targets after firing a few shots the tank is hit in the rear by an incoming Russian lanced drone and here's the interesting part because we've seen this footage before but only from a different perspective the Russian Ministry of Defense also released footage from the same battle filmed by one of their observation drones what is even more interesting is that in the version they edited the footage to make it appear as though the Ukrainian tank exploded just a few moments after being hit however in the Ukrainian ground footage we can clearly see that the tank managed to drive to the side of the road to avoid blocking it allowing the Ukrainian soldiers to still use the road the crew was also most likely able to be evacuated as I already mentioned it seems that Ukraine has started to consolidate their current gains in Cur and has transition to a defensive stance however to do this they need to secure the area west of their captured territory from remaining in Russian troops to achieve this they destroyed a number of bridges to cut off the Russians as multiple videos of Ukrainian strikes on Bridges have shown over the last few days according to several Western media Outlets this led to the encirclement of Russian troops in the area reports indicate that approximately 3,000 Russian soldiers have been encircled by Ukrainian forces particularly around the areas of tatino and kovo the situation for these Russian forces is reportedly dire with limited options for evacuation the Ukrainian military has been using us supplied high mass missile systems and drones to Target Russian attempts of laying Pon two Bridges what led to further isolation of these troops the effectiveness of the high M system in this regard is putting the Russians under more pressure than ever to locate and Destroy Ukrainian High m launchers it seems that on August 15th 2024 they indeed succeeded in doing so with one high M system as this video footage shows the alleged destruction occurred after a Russian recall drone track the launcher and guided a missile strike to its location in the Ukrainian Sami region the high Mars had reportedly been involved in recent Ukrainian operations including a significant attack on a Russian military Convoy near R just days before but it cannot be confirmed that it was this exact high mass in addition Russia also claimed the destruction of more Ukrainian high-end military equipment including an Irish T anti-air defense launcher in the same region however there is skepticism surrounding this claim as some analysts suggest that the destroyed object might have been a decoy rather than an actual Iris T launcher this skepticism is fueled by the absence of significant secondary explosions which would typically be expected if a fully operational air defense system with live Munitions were hit Russia furthermore claimed to have destroy the Ukrainian mlrs system however the likelihood of it also being a decoy is high especially since there have been pictures released showing an inflatable decoy and what is most likely the same location for direct comparison definitely not consisting of decoys was this Ukrainian Patriot battery that was hit by a Russian isander missile right after launching two missiles of its own it's possible that the launcher even tried to intercept the isander itself however there are also no visible signs of ammunition detonation in the recording likely because the dispersion of the submunitions did not caused significant damage to the equipment even the pro Russian Outlet riar acknowledged that it is highly likely the Patriot system did not suffer significant damage and that the air defense system could not be taken out of service and this recently released strike on another reported Patriot battery we can see a secondary explosion after the site was hit indicating significant damage this time if you've watched this far I really want to take a moment to say thank you your support and interest in my videos truly mean the world to me if you haven't already please make sure to leave a like and comment if you found this video valuable it really helps a ton with the YouTube algorithm which currently favors all the cess content forms pumping out low effort Ukraine content like crazy without any meaningful value your likes and comments help this video get discovered more countering those sess and hugless videos to Briefly summarize the situation in cursed since my last update Ukraine has made further territorial gains but has been partially pushed back in the Northwest this is due to Russia having deployed more battle hardened troops to the area including some from the Eastern Front this means that Ukraine's further advances could now be significantly hindered as a result Ukraine is now preparing to shift from an offensive to a defensive posture however the region west of the captured areas should still be cleared or stopped out to further consolidate Ukraine's position in the long term it seems to remain difficult to sustain an effective maneuver Warfare strategy over a prolonged period even though Ukraine has practiced this very effectively en cursed so far nevertheless the windows for such operations appear to remain extremely short and could become even shorter in the future on the other hand since my last update Russia has made further territorial gains in the east in the area around turrets towards pokrov where Russia's operational Focus currently lies as well as on the marinka vula X's further south it also seems that as of August 30th Russia has managed to encircle Ukrainian troops in New York however I am currently working on a separate update regarding the battles for toret and chess if you as mentioned Russia's main effort is focused on pkr's a strategic Road and rail Hub the city plays a crucial role in Ukraine's Logistics especially in supplying EMB battled areas like chess of Y porr also hosts an important techical University and is near Ukraine's largest cooking coal producer Russia aims to capture pkrs to disrupt Ukrainian supply lines extend its control of over the donet region and support further territorial gains particularly in Higher Ground areas like chessar the situation in pokro deteriorated with the onset of the K offensive which diverted experience the motivated brigades depleting stabilization reserves and allowing Russian forces to advance quickly the potential loss of porro represents a significant operational threat to Regional Logistics potentially disrupting crucial supply lines from vula in the South to holka losing both Road and rail connections would severely impact Ukrainian forces in the dbas increasing the risk of losing control over turov vula and surrounding areas to the north and south of turrets during the battle for pockros the 47th mechanized Brigade uploaded several videos showing us supplied equipment in combat this video for example shows a Ukrainian M1 abrs tank engaging a group of Russian soldiers who had taken position inside a house here a drone from the 47th mechanized Brigade recorded a Ukrainian unit Court in the open in front of of a Russian occupied tree line as cluster Munitions hit their positions it's unclear whether the Munitions were launched by Ukrainian or Russian troops although it has been reported that the artillery was likely danger close Ukrainian fire despite the hits Landing all around them the Ukrainian soldiers appeared to withstand the bombardment without any visible impact on their combat capability recognizing the need for a quick extraction they called a Bradley Fighting Vehicle for evacuation the Bradley promptly responded arriving swiftly on the scene to rescue the soldiers demonstrating good coordination and resilience under intense pressure the Ukrainian fire team quickly mounted up in the back of the Bradley while it provided fire support with its 25 mm Bushmaster Cannon while laying down suppressive fire the Bradley hit reverse and successfully exfiltrated the team from the area it even seems that a Ukrainian drone took a dive and flew extremely close to the Bradley observing it I believe it was a Ukrainian drone because it made no attempt to crash into the vehicle however this raises the question of why the footage hasn't been released from this perspective the Drone could also have been Russian this is a video from the Ukrainian Kurt and Company unit showing their leader Kurt inside an armed buggy firing a few shots with a muled machine gun the unit has used buggies and experimental gear like robot talks before but this seems to be the highest quality Drone footage of a buggy they've released so far if I remember correctly buggers have been used in the Ukraine war as fast agile Vehicles suited for reconnaissance quick strikes and Rapid troop transport their lightweight design allows them to navigate difficult terrain and avoid detection more easily than heavier vehicles as luck would have it a similar video showing an armed cyber truck was released by none other than kadirov himself the video shows him driving the vehicle armed with a machine gun while being dressed in a way that can only be described as strange to say the least I mean I have no idea what he's wearing here it looks like he's role playing a mix of Assassin's Creed and the acolytes from World of Warcraft all I see is Blackness all my Hood's down after I had just mentioned door gunner down and drones from helicopters in my last update Ukraine has now released footage of it mi8 door gunner taking down a Russian shyat drone using the helicopters on board machine gun the shyat Drone is a relatively easy target for this since it is considered relatively slow compared to other military drones or aircraft with a cruising speed of around 120 to 150 kmph this slower speed makes it more vulnerable to being targeted by air defenses or like in this case door Gunners however its slow speed also contributes to its endurance and ability to loiter over a Target area for extended periods Russia has recently released footage of a new remote controlled artillery robot this Cru is howt a prototype is called clever and not much info has been shared about it by now however it is obvious that operators can control the Howitzer from a safe distance which reduces the risk to personnel and allows for quick repositioning and firing other countries are also experimenting with this concept for example the German rch 1555 has a remote control feature as well his helmet cam footage shows the Downing of a Ukrainian drone by a Russian soldier as his ATV was chased and targeted by the Drone we've seen plenty of similar scenes by now but I think it's always interesting to watch this also illustrates the concept behind the saying every rifl and an anti-drone operator very well even though using Small Arms is really a last resort against such threats here a Ukrainian drone from the 15th artillery reconnaissance Brigade Black Forest spotted and observed the Russian 1 l219 zuan counter battery radar Sal of bits Lans the system was then targeted and destroyed by a Ukrainian High Mar strike the zuo1 is a Russian counter battery radar system designed to detect and track incoming artillery fire Motors and Rockets it provides coordinates of the firing position allowing for quick counterattacks this makes it a high value Target
