Helmet Cam: Soldier's RPG Hit By Tracer on His Back During Ambush in Ukraine
Published 2 years ago
Helmet cam footage that has been leaked to the internet captures the moment advancing International Legion and Ukrainian Troops are ambushed by Russian troops attempting to make a last stand.
This appears to be the third video in a string of videos released to the internet today showing an International Legion operation to capture a village from Russian control. The first two videos can be found here and here.
While it's still unclear exactly where this was filmed, it appears that the Russians are refusing to surrender the village. In the beginning of the video, you can hear a Ukrainian yelling at a Russian to put his hands up and move closer. While it's hard to clearly understand what is being said, it sounds like he says, "Put your hands up, move closer. Get your hands higher."
Shortly after that, an explosive round can be heard from a nearby piece of armor. Judging from the reaction of the troops on the ground, that round was fired by the Ukrainian side. Right after that, the troops are ambushed and you can see a tracer bounce directly off one of the advancing troops next to the cameraman.
The status of everyone involved in this gunfight is currently unknown, however only three of the four original troops that were in frame can be seen standing at the end of the video.
