To capitalize on the sweeping success of Operation Pervo-1 the Chosen Company with the other units of the 59th brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine have decided to execute a bold large-scale offensive that would see the entirety of the company deployed on the battlefield. Four teams would assault, trying to push through in the village of Pervomaiske, just 10 kilometers away from Donetsk. This operation, nicknamed Pervo-2, would become their hardest and bloodiest battle.

We finally managed to lift the ban on the video. We would dearly ask you to share the video with everybody you know to overcome the consequences of being shadow-banned for three days. Thank you all for patiently waiting and sorry again for the delay. We really hope you enjoy the video.

These men really don’t know what they’re doing. Each guy is waiting on the next guy to make a decision. I’ve spent 11.5 years in the 75th regiment C company 3rd battalion. So I know combat very well. Between them losing the only radio and the lack of right communication tells a lot. My unit would NEVER lose the only fucking radio because that’s what saves entire teams. The JTAC is super fucking important probably the most important man on the team. If I was running the show for this team this stuff wouldn’t happen. No offense to them. They’re doing the right thing. But the decisions they’re making is life altering. I’m seeing a lot of major mistakes here. Hopefully they learn from this. Because I don’t believe these guys have anymore then 6 months of combat experience and that’s me being very nice. These guys need to be trained much better.

Wow remember in the 2000s and 2010s when we started getting first person footage (often on grainy camera phones) of firefights in Afghanistan and Iraq? We thought they were intense but they were merely pew-pew short and sharp ambushes once in a while. No disrespect to anyone who was there but this is proper warfare on another level! This is all-out modern nightmarish war where you are up against an enemy with the same weapons... but more of them - being the underdog somewhat and constantly observed and under 360degs attack from all weapons including drones. I think we forget sometimes about what we are seeing..desensitised now. But that thought just struck me about seeing the Afghan footage back in the 2000s and 2010s (some of which is still on RU-vid) really made contrast of what these guys - on both sides - are going through. Hellish.

Controlling panic/terror whilst trying to perform the mission is unbelievably difficult with drones flying overhead and small arms fire & RPGs from your objectives. Losing communications and taking casualties add to the fog of war. You all have my deepest admiration & respect.

@humanmerelybeing1966 24 дня назад

The fact that these soldiers not only have to fear for drones at any moment but also they have to question to whom a drone belongs must be so terrifying. I can’t imagine how they feel. I’m confident that at least western powers will put a consistent countermeasure in the hands of infantrymen soon enough, but much like facing gas in WWI, I wouldn’t want to be the blood in which the quill is dipped when appending the Geneva Conventions.

So brave! Well said, ''don't panic'', panic kills. It's the same in any emergency profession. If saving a life will endager your own life, then you sometimes have to make a tough decision. As an ex-soldier, lifeguard and medic, your own life comes first. We don't leave anybody behind may be good for the movies, but in reality, you would never win a battle if you stopped for every casualty. You would get bogged down and torn to pieces by drones, arty etc... If the medics can't evac then you can go back for your mates once the battle is won (if possible). Slava Ukraine!

Time to donate to this wonderful International Legion of warriors. As a Canadian, my hats off to each and everyone of you. I need to put my mouth where my money is and attempt to make it over to Ukraine. I truly think I can be a very good addition to the international legion and not detrimental. I see many mistakes people make like sticking their head around the corner and getting shot when there are things you can do to be able to look without exposing yourselves. Tossing nades randomly works, but not if you guys throw them in increments of certain amount of feet etc etc. You guys obviously also learn as you go along in terms of tactics that haven't been taught or acquired when practicing. Some people are just made differently and war is not for everyone. I think I'm one of those souls that excels in these circumstances. I know many say stuff like this on the internet. Until or unless I make it to Ukraine to help fight orcs I'll keep donating. Slava Ukraini Heroyam Slava Much respect,love and solidarity with the International legion and Ukraines warriors.

As a German Veteran of the 23rd Gebirgsjägerbrigade (231st Bataillon) with 2 Tours in Afghanistan and 1 in Kosovo via KFOR, i gotta say, i feel so silly now that when we did extensive WW1-Style "Trench Warfare" Excercises with CQC in extreme Conditions as Gebirgsjäger, all of us were annoyed and angry about it, talking about how unecessary that is, and how it's the typical German Thing of teaching both Modern (worthwhile) but also very old and outdated (not worthwhile) Combat Strategies, because German Bureaucracy is so slow, it can't bother to update anything. Now over 10 Years later: We actually now train Ukrainian (and even some Foreign Volunteer) Soldiers in Harsh Weather & Trench Warfare! Turns out learning this kind of Combat suddenly is relevant again and now the Soldiers fighting in Ukraine come to us en Masse to learn about it. I definitely feel silly now that we made fun about having to learn all about this kind of Warfare back then, thinking it will never be useful Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps

They get the very basics wrong that normal soldiers learn in their first month as recruits. Ukraine should have sent them to the border with Belarus to guard the trenches there and free up some Ukrainians. That would give them time to get some proper training before sending them elsewhere.
