12 Oct: Ukrainian Forces BLOW UP ENTIRE RESIDENTIAL AREA WITH RUSSIANS INSIDE | War in Ukraine
Video Summary
The Ukrainian military has launched a series of powerful counterattacks to stop Russian forces from accumulating in the high-rise district of Tekhtarkhan, a crucial area to cut off the Ukrainian defense of the city. The goal of the Russian forces is to capture the high-rise buildings, which would enable them to establish fire control over the entire city and split the Ukrainian defense into two isolated pockets. However, the Ukrainians are aware of this plan and are continuously launching raids and counterattacks on Russian positions to prevent them from setting up an assault. The Ukrainian Special Purpose Assault Brigade, one of the country’s most elite units, is playing a key role in these operations. The unit is deploying drones to observe and strike Russian forces, as well as conducting intense raids on high-rise buildings. The Ukrainians are also using explosives to demolish Russian positions and trap Russian soldiers inside the buildings, making it difficult for them to establish fire control or observe the surrounding area. As a result, the Russian forces are forced to hide inside the buildings, making it easier for the Ukrainians to eliminate them. The Ukrainian military’s efforts have been very successful, and it appears that they are on the verge of gaining control of the high-rise district, which would deal a significant blow to Russian operations in the area.
