Ukrainian defenders blitz Russian units hiding in village
DRAMATIC moment Ukrainian defenders blitz Russian units hiding in former residential buildings in a village in southern Ukraine.

The 45th Separate Artillery Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said the attack took place in a village near the city of Huliaipole in the southern Ukrainian region of Zaporizhzhia Oblast.

The brigade joked that they organised a “hellish party” for the invading unit after noticing them travelling to the Ukrainian village to “look for a DJ and musical instruments”.

The Ukrainian brigade said on 27th May: “In one of the hamlets in the Huliaipole region, orcs organised a mass movement. They were very busy - they were probably looking for a DJ and musical instruments. With the help of cannons of 45 rounds and cooperation with air reconnaissance units of 15 GU DVKR and Azov, we organised a hellish party.”

In the footage, the defending forces identify several buildings in the village and rain down bombs on the Russian positions, apparently destroying military gear and killing enemy soldiers.

Russian troops invaded Ukraine on 24th February in what the Kremlin is still calling a "special military operation". Today marks the 96th day of the campaign.
