Details: Operatives from the 73rd Maritime Special Operations Centre and soldiers from the 144th SOF Centre approached a Russian-held position and repeatedly urged the troops to surrender. The Russians refused.

The combined Ukrainian unit then stormed the position. The Russians attempted to resist but were wiped out. Ukrainian troops seized Russian documents and weapons.

During the operation, the Russians opened mortar fire on the SOF positions, wounding one of the Ukrainian soldiers. He was evacuated and received medical treatment. His life is not in danger.

The SOF stated that the operation’s success was the result of careful planning, clear coordination between units and the cohesive actions of the raid participants.
