Russian Armed Forces squad cleans a ukrainian trench | Ukraine 2022

Methodically secure trench lines. To clear enemy trenches, Russia employes specific tactics and battle drills. The platoon leader directs one squad to enter the trench and secure a foothold. The platoon leader then sends in additional squads to begin clearing the trench in the direction of movement from the foothold. Suppressive fire from machine guns and artillery isolates the trench to prevent enemy reinforcements. The trail fire team secures intersections and marks the cleared route as the squad pushes forward.
