00:00Hello friends, this is an old-school demining method and first-rate situational awareness
00:05as a team of Ukrainian soldiers travels down the road near the front line when they notice
00:10that the invaders have laid an anti-tank mine along the route. Instead of calling a sapper team,
00:15one of them grabs his rifle and proceeds to detonate the mine from a safe distance.
00:20That way, they can continue their work without major delays. That's what I call good marksmanship.
00:28A truck driver from the Horde laments the stressful working conditions he has to deal with on the job,
00:33driving his vehicle down a road where several of his colleagues are making unexpected
00:38and apparently, judging by the footage, rather permanent stops with their trucks.
00:43We must remember that vehicles struck by the defenders are generally not removed from the road
00:48due to the high risk of further attacks by Ukrainian mosquitoes. In fact, at most, they are just pushed
00:53off the road by mobile Horde military engineering teams. We'll see if his Segurowski insurance covers
00:59the damage to the Kamionovsky truck. Here we have another case of how the invaders care for their
01:05soldiers, giving them humane and loving treatment. On October 15th, the defenders of the 42nd Mechanized
01:12Brigade were attacking a fortified position of the Horde with such intensity that one of the Russian
01:16survivors decided to leave the trench where he had taken shelter. With his hands raised in surrender,
01:21he began following a Ukrainian drone that was acting as his guide. This, apparently, didn't sit well with
01:27his commanders, who decided to send an attack drone to finish off their comrade and prevent him from
01:32surrendering. The attack failed to eliminate the Orc, but it left him lying on the battlefield, waiting
01:38for his fate. However, the soldiers of the Brigade's Motorized Infantry Battalion decided to send an unmanned
01:44ground vehicle with two soldiers who reached the wounded man and loaded him onto the vehicle to evacuate
01:49him behind the front lines. He was taken into custody, and apparently the captured Russian
01:55soldier was an officer or a specialist technician who had valuable intel, which justified the risk
02:00taken by the two infantrymen who went to rescue him. This is a rare record of a combat mission by
02:09a
02:09Ukrainian Sichen-type strategic strike drone during the final phase of its run as it braves anti-aircraft
02:15fire over its target deep inside Mordor territory. The Sichen, whose name translates to January in
02:21Ukrainian, was publicly introduced in April 2026. It has a maximum operational range of 1,400 kilometers.
02:28It carries a 40-kilogram combat warhead at speeds of up to 200 kilometers per hour-hour with a flight
02:34ceiling of 1,500 meters, and it can strike targets with an accuracy of approximately 20 meters.
02:41The system is designed to carry out missions, both day and night, against high-value targets, critical
02:46infrastructure, and troop concentrations, even under electronic warfare conditions. Its maximum takeoff
02:53weight is 140 kilograms, and the launch preparation time is under 15 minutes, and it lives in the nightmares
02:59of the orcs in the rear. Nah, I made that last part up, but I don't think it's too far
03:05from the truth.
03:07This is interesting. On October 12, the 1st Azov Corps of the National Guard of Ukraine announced that
03:14its 3rd International Battalion, which was formerly part of the 12th Azov Special Forces Brigade,
03:18was reorganized as the 52nd International Assault Regiment, FORC or FROWA, in Spanish. The unit,
03:25which has recruited volunteers from roughly 40 countries over about 18 months of operations,
03:30now constitutes a permanent organic formation within the corps structure. This transformation
03:37reflects a sustained growth in the recruitment of foreigners, as well as the strong operational
03:42performance shown by the volunteers. The International Battalion was publicly established in late December
03:472024, integrating Ukrainian personnel and international fighters who had already served in other Azov units.
03:55During the following period, it conducted combat operations in sectors such as Toretsk and Dobropilya,
04:02with a notable action near Zoloty Kolodias, in which its fighters captured 18 enemy troops. During the period,
04:08the Azov Regiment became an assault infantry unit, and it uses English as its primary language for training,
04:15planning, and the chain of command, given its multinational composition.
04:20The promotion of this international unit shows how the participation of foreign volunteers within the
04:26National Guard has been formalized, bringing both additional troops and a public symbol of external
04:31support. The Regiment's official and recruitment channels continue to accept volunteer applications
04:37and present service in the unit as a professional commitment side by side with Ukrainian personnel.
04:44The Artan Special Unit, belonging to the Main Directorate of Intelligence, published a video on October 14th,
04:51showing the systematic strikes that their drone operators carried out against multiple Russian ammunition depots
04:57near the front line. These actions are part of a campaign that has managed to destroy or damage over
05:032,300 targets in four months within the sector where they operate. Temporary ammunition storage points near the front,
05:10as well as permanent ones located in the rear, account for a large portion of the targets the unit has
05:15hit.
05:17However, locating the targets is usually the hardest part of their job,
05:21a task handled by their team of analysts and aerial reconnaissance units, which track transport
05:27movement patterns to identify positions before sending the drone swarm after them.
05:33With the destruction of each ammunition depot, the enemy's frontline positions run out of shells and lose
05:39their ability to keep fighting, making them a high-priority target for the unit.
05:46On the Strategic Strike Front, during the night of October 15th, the Ukrainian Navy attacked the
05:52Borissoglepsk military airfield in Russia's Borones region using Neptune-type anti-ship missiles
05:57adapted for land-attack missions, which resulted in damage to at least six fighter bombers.
06:03Hardsu-34M pullbacks as well as technical equipment intended to support their operations.
06:09The General Staff of Ukraine later confirmed that four aircraft were destroyed and two others were
06:16damaged. This was confirmed by President Zelenskyy, who added that the planes were already loaded with
06:22Kaby glide bombs and were preparing to carry out attacks against Ukrainian forces.
06:28Satellite images captured after the attack and verified by Reuters show the base's aircraft
06:33parking apron, where several burned aircraft can be seen. Images taken before the attack earlier this
06:40week showed the six Su-34 jets parked in the same spot. The Vsint group Avivektor estimates that
06:48at least four of the bombers were destroyed, which aligns with the assessment of several Russian
06:52millblogger channels. Interestingly, fighter bomber denied that all six fullbacks were lost,
06:58but he did mention the need to park their planes at bases further from the front lines
07:02and to build reinforced concrete shelters dispersed across the airbases to protect their aircraft.
07:07The fullback is an advanced twin-engine fighter bomber that Russia has used extensively to drop guided
07:13aerial bombs against Ukrainian positions and settlements near the front lines.
07:18This type of ordnance allows these aircraft to strike targets from beyond the reach of most
07:23of Ukraine's air defense systems. As a result, the destruction of several Su-34 Mis in a single
07:28attack would temporarily reduce the intensity of Russian tactical aviation operations in several
07:33key sectors along the front line. Production of new units of this bomber is limited,
07:37so simultaneous damage to so many airframes will have a significant operational impact.
07:46While the defenders strike Ivan's airfields, the invaders respond by bombing a supermarket in Odessa
07:52during rush hour. And just like that, the old meme of this war continues to play out.
