(NSFW) Liberated Staromaiorske
Published 1 years ago
In this video with English subtitles, a Ukrainian soldier observes the liberated village of Staromaiorske. The Russians claimed that they were “liberating” the village, and their efforts have left it entirely destroyed. The camera operator observes that the street used to be paved but that the pavement is gone. He takes the time to comment on a deceased Russian soldier, and then takes a Russian AK-12 with suppressor.
Staromaiorske is in western Donetsk, and its capture places AFU that much closer to Mariupol on the Sea of Azov. From this video it is apparent that, for the Ukrainians, the financial as well as the human cost of recovering territory will be substantial, and the bill will be paid for years to come.
