this footage is just crazy. You remember video games, you remember movies, but this one is REAL....

In the beginning he said "Im dying, bleeding out. Its hard but Im standing so you must stand too, you all who I knew and with whoom I been.Glory to Ukraine. We will win."(he was rescued)

Now people can see why there’s always pleas for more ammo. That one dude who was dug in and all the rounds and grenades expended and they were still not taken out! Crazy shizzle bro!

No word on this world can express the respect I feel for these Combat Medics.And no film or game can reflect the hell on earth that these hellhounds walk through. At the end the sentence "in memory of fallen brothers" brought tears to my eyes.

Can't believe that guy got rattled by the RPG, then took a round to the chest and kept on fighting. Dude is a fuckin' beast.

It really hits once you tell yourself that this is all real, while we sit at home enjoying the fruits of civilization and peace time.

that ending was so emotional man, it's insane how we're able to even watch this. It's hell what these guys are going through

The terrain alone is a battle. Forests turned to splinters. Old trees disintegrated from artillery strewn over dozens of square meters apiece. Step on one spot and a branch comes up to snag or trip you. Lifted roots to roll your ankle while you focus on defeating the enemy. It takes nerve to fight in such places.

that flying Ak at 10:40 is the kind of stuff you wouldn't believe unless you saw it

I suggest watching the film “20 days in Mariupol” from the point of view of the ordinary population. this film will show the horror of everything that is happening

22:18 here our guys were supposed to disembark from the equipment and storm enemy positions. But when the apparatus opened, the enemy started firing at M113 (YPR-765). During the withdrawal and evacuation, the APC was hit by an anti-tank missile. Which wounded even more soldiers. Unfortunately, this assault was not successful, and our fighters suffered losses. I do not have information about whether there were any casualties, but you can definitely find out from the video that approximately 4-5 fighters were wounded

From Colombia 🇨🇴 thank you for the video 1 decade of these war the world needs to know brother thank 💯

My bro can you imagine being in combat like that and then having to worry about Kamikaze drones flying in on you?

this makes the Iraq war look like a walk in the park

22 years of service I wish I could be there but for now I support them every way I can.

That was so much anger in that guys voice. Raw effing emotion there!

Thank you for showing this, your part of the world needs to know what we are going through and what we are fighting for

One thing I found insane was that first dismount group, how much volume of fire they were putting down and how it all suddenly stopped once they got hit by the big guns. All of a sudden things became way too quiet, then the counter-attack came. Crazy how that fight turned around in an instant.

i like the way you react and analyse the footage. a true soldier. talking with so much respect in your voice.

These guys have been dropping absolute fire when looking at the evolution of gopro combat footage the editing these guys do is insane

Thank you for Support!!!

3rd assault brigade now maybe nowdays it the most combat unit with real fight experience in the world, Guys from from the unit are real fighters with truly passion for the result. Glory for Ukraine!

'If Carlsberg made artillery shells, they would be the best artillery shells in the world' .....hats off to Denmark for giving Ukraine ALL of its artillery shell stockpile....as their primeminister said ' we are not at war and they (Ukraine) needs them. ❤ ❤❤❤❤

bro the fact that so much of this war is just on tape. this fighting is brutal man

watching it in 4k feels so surreal

Fuck the rifle flick made this so visceral

That's some crazy juxtaposition near the end, absolute destruction and that beautiful music...

thanks brudda im new to the channel but ive been watching all thaT CHANNELS STUFF AND WASNTED TO SEE YOUR PERSPECTIVE ON IT AS A VET,ITS AMAZING WORK WHAT THESE GUYS ARE DOING

Last time I'm going to comment...... this is if he watches a bunch of channels but the channel is watching now is definitely the best.. by far this is what it actually looks like every single day we went out

Big thanks for support. And check one new video from foreign fighters "fight for position 105-106".

And people are complaining why money is being sent to these guys,,, they surely needs the help by what I'm seeing

This is the best video coverage ive seen anywhere, you are correct, the vids coming in from isreal are seriously edited out they are not going to show the realism of what we are looking at here. Thanks man...

Ukraine need more support!

I remember seeing a comment on one of these videos saying “i never thought I would see trench warfare” it so true

The major in this video is already in captivity, and gave testimony on Butusov channel kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a757oraX3qq-gZs.html And 3rd separate assault brigade Chanel kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gpaXaqVyx7aVqJc.html

There’s an interview of that captured major at 40 minutes in, on their channel. At least I think it’s the same dude

they fight like modern day computer games its a real eye opener for americans. ive shown this video to a few people. 0 cover except literaly holes and burnt trees

Glad you’re covering this. Thanks!

I’ve seen a bunch of this throughout the year but it was intense to see it pieced together

The part with the M113 being hit is insane. Absolutely insane.

24:20 You asked what hit their M113, it was a 12.7mm KORD, the Russians set up an ambush on this trail because the 3rd. Assault Br. had used it before. Once the M113s were at the top of the little hill the russians were able to see the APCs from across the valley and they got shot up. Thats what happened here at 22:25 and here at 23:13.

That russian Major was the commander of the Alga Battalion, part of the 72nd Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade. The 3rd Assault Brigade erased the 72nd when they took Andriivka, there's drone footage of the last three russians there that surrendered (and got schwacked by their own arty killing one). The Ukrainians used a drone with a loud speaker to call the russians to surrender, kinda innovative solution. There are interviews with both the Major and the two surviving russian POWs, quite interesting to listen to the Major talk.

The crossfire at 5:50 had me wincing hard. That sun is a killer.

I've watched there personal channel for quite a while these guys are one top brigade who go in as storm troopers but they are one tough unit.

Can you imagine if we as Marines flagged our own guys like that LOL guarantee it would be the first and last time hahaha. For real though these badasses are on a whole different level, I thought in the second Battle of Fallujah which was pretty gnarly but I couldn't even imagine fighting in this kind of terrain right here

Heroyam slava ❤

Bro took a round to the chest and was still up on the pkm. What a legend

This is so eye opening.

where is ammunition America!?!?

Thank you for your support of Ukraine and our fighters!

That intense fighting the drones are freaking crazy it's close combat that's for sure.

The 3rd reminds me of how I imagine our own marine raiders fight, high octane always forward. Absolute warriors

Я американець, був в Авдіївці, Бахмуті та околицях Луганська з Іноземним легіоном 3 місяці, мусив приїхати, тому що бойор сильно поранився, і я отримав травму голови ... повертаюся, коли зима закінчиться. Росія розб'є свою армію і не створить жодної протягом наступних 50 років... продовжуйте кидати нас, королівські орки!!

There are these heroes of Ukraine who are doing the job for all of us europeans, and then there are people who understands why Ukraine needs all the help. Then there is people like Tucker Carlson, who tells others that this war is a lie, and lets war criminal tell his tales freely on the f@#n national television. It disgusts me how one guy, who has nothing real knowledge about the situation, is telling to people how ukrainians are fighting and dying for nothing. If Ukraine loses, rest of Europe is next. Ukraine is the gate. Ukraine needs all the support it can get.

And just imagine what will happened if we will have all weapons we need.

At 22:16, please tell me the APC didn’t start reversing when these guys dismounted.. I’ve watched this at least a dozen times and I am almost certain it did, just even watching the foliage in the background. The guys screams. Man.

Hello It's not the first day I've seen you Thank you for your work, it is important.

Glory to Ukraine and to those who support us! Thanks for covering the war.

thx for your work

Thanks for showing us bro 👊🏽

40:49 There's interviews with this Russian Major on KZfaq, he survived and is currently in captivity.

16:49 - It’s not RPG, it’s artillery. That is a common tactic actually to use all at the same time: drones, artillery and infantry assault. Otherwise it’s almost impossible to smoke enemy from those pretty developed and deep burrows. 18:11 - He isn’t shooting towards the road. It’s artillery. Probably Russian, trying to stop the assault. Artillery is always present in every battle. Guys you have no idea, Russians can use artillery trying to get a couple of their own surrendered soldiers. They have looooaaaads of armor. They do not care if they are accurate or miss, they just fire twice more.

Thank you for your service sir🙏🏻

I like this channel! Good translation, not too many words of the Admin, but a lot of respect! Dankeschön .

Please! More aid to Ukraine! Autocracy should not take over young nation who fighting for Freedom and want to be part of a free World.

Welcome to the GoPro new way of fighting, trenches and rat holes, no jungle no desert no cover

Thank you for participating in the distribution of such videos. Now, when it seems that the world is gradually forgetting Ukraine, such videos help to remind us about us

this is intense. i can imagine how some combat injuries arise from broken tree branches or rebar just sticking out of concrete.

This chaos is insane, you can train and you can prepare but holy fuc these dudes are gnarly.

If you haven't watched it yet i recommend the video they just put out where they interview that Major that was captured, its pretty long but wont get demonetized at least 🤣

Yea that shit gave me anxiety the first time I saw it. It's insane seeing combat like this, in this high quality. Welcome to the new era of combat. That bradley footage was nuts, looks like something passed through the side, not sure what it was, but that would be scary AF.

respect for showing this to us public

I interpret fire control for trench warfare as in, one side has to keep their heads down a lot more often than the other

Guess one lesson is we will need to equip out personnel with more nades… Probably add very high powered HE for better concussive action for such closed environments, I presume the shock will travel farther than shrapnel.

Thanks for ur review!!!

So it seems every combat segment is preceded by an overhead drone view of what's about to happen. Then the FPV from soldiers point of view is shown. They also splice in drone shots of what's happening during each segment, sometimes of Russian soldiers and sometimes of Ukrainians so it's a bit chaotic but if you rewind often enough you're able to get a good idea of what happened. Good reaction video 👍

23:27 yep... I always tell people it's the closest to hell I ever want to get

6:02 “It’s fucking crazy how many were killed here”that shit sent chills down my spine

What I think really gets me is the quality. From the footage of Afghanistan and Iraq to this, there's been a leap of technology in that regard. It doesn't help that the 3rd Assault Brigade adds epic music to a lot of their uploads, and it makes the footage seem movie like in the most horrifying realistic way. From what I've seen when they say "control" -something it means they're controlling a sector, or cone of vision in a certain way. Standard "control" by itself just means you control a sector by holding aim to it, "fire control" has to do with being engaged (pre-engagement if both forces recognize each others positions but haven't started volleying rounds it's a moment of "fire control" holding a sector where there is about to be or likely to be immediate exchange of fire in the zone of control)

React to the new foreign fighter footage, it’s crazy.

"what a sigh man"... I was frozen too by the scene.

10:43 Демилитаризация рурашен сольдатен

So the confusing situation with the M113 trying to unload and getting hit I think goes something like this: four M113s are assaulting a russian trench line. The M113 with the cameraman is taking heavy MG fire from those trenches, you can hear the pings from the rounds impacting the vehicle before, after and during the ramp going down. First guy out gets cut down by that MG fire, you can hear him scream, I'm not sure but I think the M113 might have backed up over him too... The M113 takes one RPG round after backing up, wounding the rest of the squad and prompting them to scream for the driver to get them the hell out of there. As they're going back up that hill the M113 takes another RPG which disables it. They guys dismount from the now burning vehicle and are stuck in a very awkward position with Russians controlling the high ground around the Ukrainian survivors, with them taking accurate RPG and small arms fire. I'm guessing they got picked up by that M113 and evacuated in the end.

Ukrainians are real modern Vikings!

What happened to Avdiivka?

I watch all of the video so it's kinda interesting seeing real war vid with 4k quality

Nice dude. Next must be Butusov channel' video from hight assault by 59 brigade with internatioanal volonteers.

3rd Assult are beasts....

the new 3rd AB's vid is amazing too, and of their Avdiivka intervention just a few days ago ^

It hurts so much to see this happening to my country, my people... my beautiful land, nature, trees. Everything is being killed and it's dying. Everything is on fire and turning into ashes.

32:35 If you look closely in slow motion, you can see black marks on the top of the cartridges. This means that these are 7N22 BP (armor-piercing) cartridges of 5.45x39 caliber. Such cartridges were developed in 1998 and are only available in service with the Russian army.

The part from 22:00 onwards will probably give these guys nightmares. Being stuck inside an APC that's under heavy fire until it gets disabled, having to crawl outside as fast as possible while probably still dizzy from the concussion, and ending up in the middle of an apocalyptic landscape, while another APC flies by at full speed. When movies or games want a scene to make you feel like you've stepped into hell, this is exactly the kind of aesthetics they go for. Except this time, it was very real.

Great video man! Once again

where I can get the original one or unconsored?

The 3rd Assault Brigade can teach warriors all over the world

Kyiv Independent today "I am an American military veteran, callsign "Jackie," and I am writing from Donbas in Ukraine. I am originally from Orange County, California. I served in the U.S. military for eight years, stationed in Colorado, South Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Kuwait. I also worked as a contractor at the John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Center in North Carolina, helping prepare our future special operators. As an American soldier, I have always been interested in our national security and global interests. I am currently an assault instructor serving in the 3rd Assault Brigade, an elite unit of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. A few days ago, we came to the rescue of Ukrainian forces who had been enduring the Russian attack on the town of Avdiivka. Our fighters quickly destroyed two Russian brigades and kept a corridor open for Ukrainians in Avdiivka to retreat from the town. Our soldiers are true professionals, undisturbed by the massive Russian firepower being flung at them and fighting hard to gain and maintain the corridor. One thing I teach my students is to conduct “shaping-operations”- essentially, to take steps by using alternative means such as artillery, airpower (drones in our case), or electronic warfare to prepare the battlefield for the success of our infantry to capture their final positions. My students are very excited to employ these techniques, they train on them and use them in battle frequently. Ukrainian soldiers are highly motivated to fight efficiently and reduce casualties as they are making their transition from Soviet to NATO doctrinal warfare. Our brigade is leading this transition and using shaping-operations at every level possible - even down to the squad. We make plans, we do reconnaissance, we task support assets and we review our actions after battle to learn what we did well and what we need to change. We admit our successes and failures and we improve and grow ourselves as professionals. Because of this, in battle, we are confident and unrelenting. On the ground in Avdiivka, we felt the results of current U.S. politics with full force. We are accustomed to fighting with less artillery than Russia. We have already developed clever ways of using precision fire to counter Russian artillery. Our artillery soldiers use their U.S.-provided weapons efficiently and effectively to batter the second largest military in the world, so that our assaulters have cover while they pierce like needles to rapidly cut Russian forces' critical arteries. We are used to fighting understrength. We are intelligently adapted and trained to push ourselves to the highest level of combat performance, but we cannot deliver miracles. We have already delivered many miracles in this war, and I am sure we will continue to do so, but hoping for miracles is not a reliable way to win a war. I need to go pray and say goodbye to more of my students and friends. These soldiers, these men and women, are incredible people. It takes weeks to teach American soldiers what Ukrainians are able to learn in hours. Their standards and self-expectations are high. They usually accomplish complex team-based tasks correctly on their first attempt. Every time they fail in training, they get angry with themselves and repeat the task until it is right. I have never had to ask them to stay later or work harder. They hardly sleep, they don’t complain, and most of them have families. Besides not getting to spend time with their families, these soldiers know that this fight is for their future and their safety. I am extremely disappointed in a super minority decision in Congress to block funding for Ukraine. They have said that we need this or that - border security or healthcare or whatever you want to say - but it is clear to me that this is solely about Ukraine. We didn’t have proper border security or healthcare in 2010 either - or 2000, or 1990, or 1980, or 1970 0r 1960, or 1950. Our decision and ability as Americans to have funding for something we supposedly want has nothing to do with enabling Ukraine’s current defense. The problems in the U.S. that this super minority in Congress is citing to block funding have endured since the founding of our nation in the 1700s. They have nothing to do with Ukraine in 2024. I am sure that France in 1776 could have come up with many excuses not to support American colonists fighting for independence from British subjugation. Foreign support and arms enabled Congress to stand today. Now, we are tasked to keep the light of freedom lit for others. The current speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, wants to pour water on that fire. We are fighting hard against impossible odds. All you need to do is help from a distance, and that is a good thing for Americans. You do not want to come here. The Ukrainians are dying and it is not out of ignorance or accident. They are dedicated to their liberation from Soviet values and Russian oppression. They are spilling oceans of blood to join the free democracies of the world. There is more, but there are limyts on how much you can post.

Those trees are completely burnt out by artillery but commentator saying like "if there's no sound in this video I'll think it's a common training"

This is the price of our peace, these people are Titans who defend us from the horde

22:49 If it had been a Soviet BMP-1 or BMP-2, the entire crew would have burned. In the Soviet army in Afghanistan, this “aluminum canister” was given the mocking nickname “Bratskaya Mogila Pekhoty” (Mass Grave of the Infantry) And the soldiers were lucky to be in the American Bradley, which is more armored against the RPG-7. But they were very lucky that they didn’t burn.

Thanks for the video and god bless the Ukrainian men and women fighting for their freedom and lives
