As the Armed Forces created a bridgehead near the cribs: the media showed the work of an elite special unit

The corresponding report was published by the Associated Press. It is this elite unit that is on the forefront of Ukrainian counter -offensive. He commands him an officer with the Scythian call sign. Since the beginning of the full -scale invasion of Russia, the soldiers of the unit were near the location of the military who controlled the Dam of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station and the land across the Dnieper.

Journalists write that both the Ukrainian and the Russian side knew that the key to the return of the occupied south is control of the river. However, everything changed after the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation destroyed the Dam of the HPP. In addition to the fact that water from the reservoir killed a lot of civilians, it also washed away the positions of the Ukrainian military. In particular, the unit fighters were ready for the transition.

It is noted that in the daytime on the frontier streets of the Kherson region, the fighters are no different from civilians, but at night they turn into elite fighters - some in hydraulic costs, others in boats. The report states that Ukrainians rarely learn about the work of fighters, but an indicator of their work is the statements of the Russian Federation about the alleged destruction of the special unit.

On the eve of the exploration of Kakhovskaya Hydroe Dam Outragers, Ukrainian fighters were ready to capture Russian positions, which they found in the Dnieper Islands. However, the flooding of the territories changed their plans. The elite units were forced to regroup and equip their headquarters in abandoned homes and shops in the nearest settlements. They slept for several hours in the afternoon, woke up at sunset, and went to explore new routes for counter -offensive.

Periodically, they captured Russian soldiers who were stuck on trees or found mines thrown ashore. The special unit was waiting for the water to fall to capture the positions of the invaders and lay the basis for the arrival of infantry and Marines in Kherson. The publication writes that the commander of the unit had to be convinced of the high -ranking military that if his fighters were able to capture the strategic bridgehead, then it would be advisable to send troops.

However, this meant the fulfillment of missions on the river, which was very risky. According to the unit commander, his phone book is a "small cemetery", because many decent people were killed on the battlefield. When the water departed in July, both Ukrainian and Russian military moved from opposite sides of the river. The task of the 73rd Maritime Center of Special Operations was to win the island near the dam.

With the help of their agents, drones and satellite images, they knew where the Russian military was relocated. However, during the task, when the Ukrainian military landed from boats and went into the woods, one person from their team exploded on Russian stretch. Then the invaders began to fire a special unit, which decided to return to the boat and retreat to their shore of the Dnieper. After that, it took a few more weeks the Ukrainian military to knock out the occupiers from the island.

The next task for them was to climb and break Russian defense under the destroyed railway bridge. The publication notes that Ukrainian fighters had an advantage over Russian, because most of them were bilingual and understood the intercepted conversations of the invaders, while the Russian military needed a translator to Ukrainian.

Having intercepted the conversations of the Russian army near the bridge, the Ukrainian special unit understood how many occupiers they would resist them and what they were armed. After the fighters made the crossing, they were waiting for reinforcements. However, then the advantage of the Ukrainian military disappeared, because the invaders dominated the air. Therefore, after they were fired at Iskander and drones, the military had to depart.

The next task of the elite unit of the Armed Forces was the admiration of the island near the Krynok. Then the military was lucky, because they voluntarily seemed to be captured by 12 invaders, including one officer. They provided Ukrainian military information that was useful for their task. The unit commander was ready to capture the island with only 20 fighters, but he asked for further support to keep the territory.

In particular, they were promised to provide such support, however, after the staff, as the soldiers of the unit set a Ukrainian flag in the village. Actually, it was possible to do this in mid -October. We will remind, analysts of the Institute of War Study reported on December 22 that the forces of defense continue to keep the left -bank bridgehead under the crusts in the Kherson region. In particular, the invaders attacked the positions of the Ukrainian military 30 times.
