A Russian war blogger revealed a tunnel Putin’s men used to get behind Ukrainian lines. The gloating propagandist said the tunnel was dug in the town of Toretsk, near Avdiivka. Video shows the blogger crouched in the shaft holding a rifle and a shovel. The footage emerged as Russia made a sudden advance in the area. But Ukraine’s 95th Air Assault Brigade claimed to have the situation in hand. Drone footage shows an armoured vehicle from the brigade hitting Russian positions. The vehicle drives down a narrow street and peppers the buildings with shells. It approaches one building with a cavedin roof where Russian troops are hiding. And then uses its autocannon to hammer the units taking cover there. More footage shows a Ukrainian tank hitting another Russian hiding spot. The war machine unloads shells into the building, where Storm Z units are based. Yet more thermalvision drone footage shows Russian vehicles being hit. One BMP is hit by a drone or rocket, loses control and hits an electric line. A Russian ammo dump is then blown up at distance using rockets or shells.
The Ukrainians then successfully target a tank, blowing it to smithereens. FPV drones are used to blow up at least three Russian BMPs. Before a Ukrainian tank opens fire on a Russian base inside a building. Toretsk is located west of Avdiivka, a Ukrainian stronghold now in Russian hands.
Russia has been trying to press its advantage and advance beyond the city. It has met with success, with the Ukrainians forced to cede ground. However the advance has also come at a high cost in men and materiel. #russia #ukraine #war
