Combat GoPro - Accidentally Fragging Russian Spetsnaz 

The fact that with the modern warfare you could be running around in panic trying to survive while your enemy is sitting in a chair eating donuts operating a drone from 30km away is terrifying

Thank you all for your support. My friends from these videos are incredibly touched by your kind words. Got some comments asking about their injuries, so I’ll explain them here rn. The injuries he himself personally received is a piece of shrapnel from an artillery round that skipped off his back plate, bounced off his spine, and shot out above his neck. He wasn’t able to move his head sideways for a couple months, but slowly got more movement and when I came back two weeks ago he was getting ready to go to Bakhmut which he just went to. I was able to supply him, because of all your support on this channel, a drone, a helmet that’s still coming, winter base layers and a Kevlar groin protector. He then took the rest of the stuff I brought and handed them to a unit in Bakhmut on my behalf. He’s just as he seems in the video, a down to earth humble dude. At this point he doesn’t get paid combat pay unless he’s on the front, so he has to pay for gym, apartment, food, and gas out of pocket. I’ll be interviewing different member of this team you see as well as the team leader who had a piece of shrapnel go through his liver and out his lung. Hopefully then they’ll be able to explain the difficulties they’re having, but honestly they’re just absolutely dedicated to helping the war effort they don’t often post on social media and such. Thanks for your interest, and I know this was long winded, but you guys deserve an explanation.

It's crazy to think this was once a normal village with families and kids living normal lives.

Been in combat in Afghanistan . The fear of losing your life is unexplainable. Just imagine what the civilians who want no part of the war feel.

That sigh of relief after they cleared the first house......I was holding my breath right along with him. Couldn't imagine being in his place. The courage on display from these guys is incredible.

I still find it fascinating that you can watch a war take place online, when you think back to WW2 none of this would ever be fathomed. Been watching your stuff for a while now, incredible dedication and work you're doing. Be safe out there, all of you.

I shouldn't love these videos as much as I do. can't really imagine being in this situation but man I have so much respect for you for getting through all of these situations. sending all the vibes.

I used to be at the same duty station with this young man in the same unit. It seems like just yesterday he had several punks (especially one in particular) talking trash about him and how he wasn’t deemed tough enough by some people in our company. Which is definitely false because I always knew he was a pretty tough dude. It turns out, this dude has the biggest balls in [REDACTED] Company of [REDACTED]….none of those dudes who talked trash about him are in Ukraine or the Middle East fighting alongside those citizens without the might of the [REDACTED] military. This young man is the one with balls and resolve. One of the nicest damn people I’ve ever met too. Proud of you civ div!

I served in the British Army, Prince of Wales Own regiment (but never fought in an active conflict) and just wanted to say the professionalism, cool headiness and co-ordination these guys have has me in absolute awe. Hats off to you guys well done!

God I'm sure that BMP knew how screwed it was deducing that this team who had ALREADY taken out a BMP earlier was still in the area, nice work

From this old Marine to you hope you stay safe. That's all I can say.

I think this is actually the first GoPro combat footage that had my heart racing a bit! Most of the time, you can’t see anything the guy with the GoPro is firing at or even targeting so this type of footage is usually kinda anti-climactic. Can’t wait to see the rest!!

This footage is invaluable, just remember that you guys are too. I pray for your safety, and a quick end to this worthless war.

I had three spinal surgeries from being in the US army. It's not good to be laying on the ground taking in the sky with steel flying. Hoping for a speedy recovery for your friend!

Active search and destroy missions against a well trained enemy in an unknown village is quite frightening.

It's interesting to think that 12 years ago, these guys were playing COD Modern Warfare with their friends on the PS3 after school. Now they gotta play the exact same scenario but in real life.

This is epic footage and just goes to show how difficult communications are within a combat situation. Add the language barriers and things can easily go bad in a hurry. Very impressive how the Ukrainians have grouped and absorbed all the foreign war fighters into effective combat teams while holding it all together. Glory to the hero’s and may God bless them all with 100% victory!

It's good that you've shown all the footage. The war effort is a lot more than shooting bullets. There's an uneasy feeling in every part, even when it's just walking. You'll never know where the enemies are and I reckon it's even harder with fighters who have limited training together or have different amounts of experience. Thank you for showing this, It's important to document this war. Love to Ukraine from Estonia!

you can see bullet impact on the wall he is covering against at 9:28 when you hear the shots after the text hit about the drone and the bmp going away,. you can even hear it you can see little chunks of stone flying beneath his left arm.

glad to see you're still here with us man. keep up the work. remember, theres people out there you're doing good for!! keep it up!

That dude called what type of grenade it was by the sound, Actual legend.

I pray for you guys and gals everyday . I tried to come over to help but due to some serious back injury’s I sustained (being shot ) in Afghanistan they did not want me to come because they thought I would be more hinderance to operations. Thank you all for what you are doing . You are all constantly in our hearts and minds. I pray this war ends soon and Ukraine gets back all that was taken and all of you come home safely ! ❤❤❤

Thank you very much for defending my country! Hello from Dnipro❤

damn dude you where that close before you realized there where enemies, fog of war is truly terrifying

This is the first time in history that this type of content has been shared. So raw. Imagine ww2, and a tiger tank rolling up on you. What if we had that pov footage as well? This footage helps me understand what those who fight in war go through

You weren't lying when you said the next uploads will be some of the best footage online. The full picture instead of an edited down "action reel" is the way to do it man. Gives us an idea of the entirety of combat actions such as these.

Gunfire erupted right by him and this man held his corner like its no big deal

Civ div. When i first saw you i thought you're just a youtuber. But after seeing you fight those spetz naz in a building, and receiving a shell after with team injuries then i realized that you're a badass soldier. Not affraid to die. And doing Ukraine good.

Even though I could not hate war any more than what I do now, I have to say this footage is extremely necessary for the us public to know the reality of what's really going on and what a soldier goes through every day. It's a plus that these guys are top tier operators and it shows. Incredible footage.

God what a nightmare, I can't even imagine. Hoping for a swift recovery for your boy and his team leader.

ur u legend dude know it u save lifes thanks for ur service.

Ok, thanks for that evident lesson that every Russian Warrior will learn now from this footage. From now any Russian soldier will NEVER surrender unarmed to any of US/UK mercenary - instead that, he would rather explode thyself, taking your lives with thyself as much as possible !

It's a shame RU-vid restricts such historical and interesting videos. This would make a great mini documentary about this particular mission. Hope you and your buddies are safe.

The fact that we are able to see what you guys are experiencing is just absolutely chilling. Thank you so much for sharing everything to us.

Great low level skills and drills. Keep talking - every man a link man, etc. Good work guys. Stay safe.

That first dude cleared the room without actually looking in the room. Lethal. Good thing POV buddy actually cleared the room.

Not many people will feel the adrenaline of sitting with the tension out of your trigger knowing full well your going to take a life, tons of respect for these guys fighting !

I literally just finished the first two videos of this battle and was hoping I wouldn't have to wait long for the next part. I hit refresh and saw this was uploaded about ten minutes ago, thanks dude! Also thanks to you and your buddies for your service. If we didn't have people like you (all foreign legion fighters and Ukrainians themselves I mean) defending freedom and democracy who knows how many countries Russia would be invading.

Thanks for the vidja. Peaceful Skies.

Imagine how scary would it be, that you're there and you know that every video you film could be the last one you ever make...

I died when buddy said "Ukrainian clear doesn't mean clear"😂 prayers to those soldiers🙏

Absolutely fantastic footage, man. Love love LOVE the contextual text when needed. LOOOOOVE that you're showing everything and not just the action. Keep this shit coming, man. May God be with the lot of you

clickbait title. there is no special forces in the video, they are walking around an empty village.

Whoa this is insane !!!! The adrenaline dump these guys endure is unimaginable

Thanks for posting all the things that happened before this, it gives me a better view of what the war is like, instead of short clips that are more common. I hope the cameraman gets well soon and fully recovers!

the amount of adrenaline and fear running through your body. Props to these warriors may god protect all soldiers and bring them back safely❤️

Thank you for helping Ukraine in the struggle for freedom and democracy. We really appreciate you!

I found this channel awhile back and. It has become my favorite. Civ Div is one hell of a man. Im so proud of these priceless Warriors fighting this war.

I cant't help but to notice the terrain and the beautiful blooming flowers surrounding this place...You wouldn't think there would be a war going on until the sounds of explosions and guns start to happen (obviously the shattered buildings as well) But it's just so strange, as a RU-vid watcher, to fully grasp the situation. Gives me goosebumps.

Good work, gentlemen, I would hope your muscle memory remembers to flip that selector switch to bang,bang mode. God be with you and all your brothers. Keep your heads on a swivel. Oscar Alpha Oscar !

I wonder what was the Spetsnaz final moments. Imagine trying to hide in that house with a casualty from the previous BMP hit and suddenly you hear English words being shouted around. Then your other BMP support just abandoned you.Not much room to maneuver around inside a common Easter European village house.

Thank you Civ Div for these videos. Watching these videos feels like just a mere glimpse into the reality of not just war, but survival. Everyone has there opinion about the war, but at the end of the day, no one should have to deal with war. It never changes...

“Accidentally” fragging spetsnaz? Holy shit I gotta see this

bro. you should do a series. if you can get a few soldiers to share video of a mission, and break it up like this. that would be legendary.

Much respect to you all and hope you make it safe home to your loved ones😘

This is probably the best quality footage I've ever seen! It's incredible that we get to see this. These guys have balls!

Thank you for these videos. Best wishes for a speedy recovery

Hi, Civ Div. What is the make and model of the wristwatch that you use in the video? Thanks.

thanks for the whole footage

Love the videos and thank you all for doing what you do I’m sure Ukraine is grateful. Prayers for them

That is why I like this channel! It is not some random guy reposting for the views from people who want to see some gunfights, it is an experienced veteran educating us about the dynamics of the military in the real world.

I felt like watching Call of Duty modern warfare games with no commentary. Keep safe and God Bless.

A state of constant confusion and worry. The worry that you might hesitate to shoot an enemy, for the even greater worry of them being a friendly. Then the worry you will be killed or get your friends killed for said hesitation. Being able to confirm the enemy ID and engage them from cover is a luxury!

Thank you for sharing this with us. It's so appreciated. It's good to know there are people like you and these guys in the video. That are so selfless to put everything on the line for what's right. Thank you

Its pretty wild to look back on footage like this knowing what you know now and realizing at any point any decision you thought about doing but didn't actually do could have been your last

this looks like so much fun i enjoy my time in Afghanistan very fun place to be as i adore labor and shooting all u did was labor wait camp and the most fun part was getting up when hearing gun shots the light headed when u get up to fast from the blood rushing to ur legs to ur head giving that addicting Adrenaline rush

Legendary footage. This will be shown and referenced for decades to come. You're an inspiration to all just and decent people. May your years be long.

Oh man, I thought they were going to run into them clearing that house, the tension alone made my eyes water. That's a hell no for me. You and your boys are truly a different breed.

Recovers from a spinal injury and right back out 3 months later. These are some baaaad men, much respect. I could never do this shit.

I am a teenager who supports Ukraine and plans to serve the US, and maybe another country, depending on how my life pans out. You’re taught me many things, some of which are useless facts for nerds like me, and some of which I implement on a daily basis. Being in high school, this summer when I get a job I plan to buy a tier 2 member from you for atleast 2 months for you and so I can get more from you. I’ve learned a lot. I also plan to donate to untied 24. You’re a great person and a great role model to me and many, keep it up man.

Some intense moments. Thank you for sharing this. I enjoy being able to see as much of the footage as possible rather than a small edited firefight video. Please tell your friends to stay as safe as they can.

The best clear footage of the war, which gives a huge understanding in the fight of the battle, Hollywood couldn`t have done it better, 1000 thanks from Denmark 🙏

It’s wild how uncoordinated this conflict is on the ground

This is the most realistic airsoft game i've ever seen

Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. I hope you all stay safe and wish you all the best good sir.

Tons of respect for all you guys from abroad serving in Ukraine answering the call to defend democracy and liberty, even from 1000s of miles away! Glory to the heroes!

Wow.. impressive quality.. I first thought it was a video game.

love the slip to the full capability

No joke, some of the most intense footage I've seen come out of Ukraine. Respect to all those who are fighting for freedom and what's right. If I did not have a young family to take care of, I'd be over there myself helping anyway I could.

Absolutely invaluable recordings of actual in your face combat footage. Gives us an idea of how unpredictable combat is and how units interact and behave during the mad minute.

This is just to acknowledge that I got your channel info when Combat Arms reacted to one of your videos! I subscribed! Thank you for posting this content! Stay safe, stay sane, stay strong Ukraine 🇺🇦

That quiet " Come on M'fucker " says it all really. Cool, calm and ready.....

To travel along and know the stress and anxiety that they feel. Incredible videos.

Release as much of this as you like my friend! Incredible and valuable first hand footage for those of us lucky enough to not have to experience it first hand. Heroyam slava!

Right about 930 when covering behind corner and hear rounds flying by, you can see concrete at your feet crumble. Did you almost get hit by a round?

I don't think I could do this work, brave people doing the hardest and most grave of jobs to keep others safe. All my respect.

eagerly awaiting the next part. hope all members of this squad and you are safe !!

Guys, thank you for your support!

Holy shit the cameraman soloed the bmp! (I know this is war and shouldnt be joked about but as always the cameramans are gods)

Been waiting for this. God bless, stay safe brother.

i have a question might seem strange but why you dont hold your finger on the trigger when clearing rooms? too avoid panic shot at civilians?

I always think of medal of honor, and some what of the command and conquer renegade when watching this.

"Ya want me to hit the BMP with a rocket?" ALWAYS

Thank you for your service gentleman Incredible footage and thanks fore sharing it!

I hope everybody in the comment section realizes that it’s hypocritical to say you support Ukraine and feel sorry for its people, and at the same time support this guys. If there was no NATO support this war would be over in a month. And tens of thousands lives would be saved.

Me sitting many miles away and comfy watching these professional guys giving blood sweat and tears for a righteous cause and for a country of peaceful people that never deserved or wanted this HORRENDOUS war forced upon them is nothing but Biblical proof of a world that form together and shows in a playground term bullies will never allowed to sit or prosper without true men & women making a stand in defiance and beating them and trampling them into submission ❤

The dude really wanted to fire that 3 round burst lol

civ div when is the 4th part coming out or did it get demonatized?

I find it surreal how calm before the storm, a war zone is. You see butterflies, a quiet place and suddenly steel flying everywhere.

I can only imagine how scary going house to house is 😳
