Russian Engineers & Spetsnaz Snuck Through an Underground Pipe to Encircle a Key AFU Fortress

January 2024: Footage of the operation of Russian special forces to reach the rear of the garrison of the Ukrainian fortified area "Tsarskaya Okhota" in Avdeevka.

The fighters cut passages in an old flooded underground pipe and through it entered the rear of the Ukrainian fortification in the south of Avdiivka, thereby successfully capturing it.

The unique operation took several weeks to prepare, while the scouts cleaned the pipe while in icy water, but it was worth it. As a result, a group of only 150 fighters covered more than 2 km and unexpectedly went behind the enemy, destroying and capturing many of them in a matter of hours.

Despite the fierce counterattacks of the enemy, the fighters, together with the reinforcements that arrived, were able to hold the acquired positions and now the further assault on Avdeevka will develop from here.
