Andriivka Ruins Cleared Of Hiding Russians
Published 1 years ago
Helmet cam footage from Azov's 3rd Assault Brigade shows security sweeping operations in the recently liberated settlement of Andriivka, which now only exists as a smoldering pile of rubble.
The Russians fought tooth and nail to hold the town, and according to the footage, some Russian troops are still holed up in the ruins that are being systematically cleared with hand grenades and bursts of small arms fire.
Analysts are suggesting that Andriivka, as well as Klishchiivka, tactically significant towns just south of Bakhmut, were retaken by Ukraine as Russia was forced to move more competent VDV Airborne units to the southern Zaporizhzhia front to stall the Ukrainian advances there.
