Three Ukrainian snipers captured four invaders
Three Ukrainian snipers carried out a successful operation behind Russian lines and captured four occupiers. The soldiers accomplished their mission despite being in enemy-controlled territory.
According to reports, “Chornyi,” “Bohun,” and “Yizhak” infiltrated an area where the enemy could have been literally anywhere, checking house by house.
“In one of the houses, platoon commander ‘Chornyi’ caught the scent of tobacco. Within seconds, it became clear: the enemy was nearby. The group moved in simultaneously from different directions: ‘Bohun’ through a window, ‘Chornyi’ through the door, and ‘Yizhak’ covered the rear. Four Russian soldiers found themselves under the complete control of the Ukrainian fighters,” the report states.
Once the building was surrounded, Ukrainian snipers addressed the occupiers and ordered them to lay down their weapons, giving them a minute to think it over.
“Either surrender, or we’ll kill you all.” The four of Putin’s henchmen made the right decision and surrendered,” our soldiers recall.
However, after capturing the prisoners, they still had to be quickly and discreetly evacuated from the danger zone without the enemy noticing, as the Russians could have opened fire on our soldiers, despite the risk of hitting their own troops.
“The operation was a success. These are four enemy personnel who will no longer be able to fire on Ukrainian troops. They are potential sources of intelligence. And this is yet another chance to bring our brothers and sisters back from Russian captivity,” the 67th Mechanized Brigade notes.
The 67th Separate Mechanized Brigade shared details of this operation on Tuesday, August 18.
