Ukraine frontline: Caught in terrifying firefight with Russian soldiers in front line trench 

2023 and we're seeing trench warfare. This is honestly so surreal.. War is hell, I just want this tragedy to end..

its one thing if you cover Iraq or Afghanistan. But actual modern frontline combat between two developed nations is a whole different level of bravery.

imagine what ww2 frontlines wouldve sounded like

*SLAVA ROSSIYA FROM CANADA* !!! 🇷🇺#Z🇷🇺🙏🇨🇦🍻

That’s gotta be the most poorly adjusted helmet chin strap in the history of mankind.

War is hell, I just want this tragedy to end.

A wise man would not be embedded with Nazis in a senseless wR that is already lost for the ukro Nazis 😉

All i can imagine now is the tears rolling down the cheek of mothers & children of both sides.

This isn't Iraq or Afghanistan where journalist safety is almost guaranteed when embedded with allied forces (since there is .00005% chance of ever being overwhelmed by the enemy). Unbelievable guts that they would do this from the frontlines.

This guy is really put together, minus that high speed chinstrap that he can’t seem to figure out. Private Pyle

This is fascinating to see trench warfare in modern times, but also terrifying.

How ironic to hear the sound of birds chirping amidst the gun fire etc. Just insane.

I haven't seen any Russian. How do I know this isn't staged? This could be anywhere. Not a single Landmark.

What incredible reporting guys. Thank you for posting. Keep safe out there..

Great reporting. Thank you!

Interesting and informative. Excellent photography job enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. From what I've seen these trenches have grass/bushes/trees. Giving the combat personal some cover. Along with the plant life absorbing some of the rain ☔ fall. Helping to keep the trenches a little dryer.

Propaganda everywhere

What an incredible idea. For a news organization to actually send reporters into the field, and not just hang out in the central square in Kiev

Oh, this reporter is sooooooooo brave … actors and comedians … you should be ashamed of yourself for not exposing the lies about what actually is happening in the Ukraine!

I remember hearing these whistling amplifying sounds right before the artillery shell lands all in these old movies about WWII. I always thought that it’s just a cartoonish stage sound they use to dramatise movies, but after seeing all of Ukraine war footage, apparently that’s what incoming shells actually sound like.

Elensky lining his pockets while sending these young men to their deaths for nothing

Being a war correspondence is a very risky job. I salute to this brave men out there.

Thank you for doing real journalism from the front lines. This reporter is not only brave but steadfast in his duty to show the world the news. Well done sir, stay safe.

Viva Russia🇷🇺. Russian army is the best

I'll say one thing as a US Marine infantry officer who served 21 years with 3 years in combat. The Ukrainian military have a set of huge titanium balls to conduct offensive operations when the Russians have had over a year to prepare in-depth defenses. I was a Marine platoon commander in Vietnam 1968-69 and I know what it is like to go against prepared defenses. I know what it's like when the area is saturated with mines and booby-traps. I know how dangerous firefights are. The biggest difference is that the Viet Cong didn't have anything more than 81 mm mortars but the North Vietnamese Army in had heavy artillery in the northern part of South Vietnam which was more intense and concentrated than what Russia has delivered and it was extremely effective. During the 10 years of war in Vietnam, the US lost 68,000 Killed and at least 3 times that wounded. The US lost 8,540 aircraft and South Vietnam lost another 1,351 aircraft.. So in those 10 years, we lost about 6,800 men and women killed every year. We lost about 854 aircraft a year. I'm 77 years old now. I'm still not sure how I made it through the year I was there without a scratch. When I came home, i was mentally and physically exhausted because we didn't get rotated out or combat. My platoon operated most of the time alone. We'd be in combat for 2-3 months at a time and then battalion would bring us back for 3 days of rest and hot meals. Then it was back out for 2-3 months. I have the greatest respect for the Ukrainian armed forces. Being able to conduct offensive operations against a superior force is just awesome. I pray for your success.

Thank you for the video.

Well done.

Brilliant reporting and steady camera work. Thanks for upload.

It does doesn’t get any better than this! Great reporting here. Watch this video

What a great report! Wonderful narration, location camera /night lighting and editing.

Looks like they took a make a wish kid to the front line with that helmet strap 😂

the sound effects sound so real you coild almost imagine being there on the front line with him

amazing quality video! more of this please!

Now imagine how Vietnamese, Koreans, Afghans or Iraqis fought for their freedom without air cover

Taking 45 seconds to untwist and properly adjust your chinstrap would have made your life less distracted, mate. One man, one kit.

Every Russian soldier is precious because they are fighting pure evil. If you want to see what evil is look at the destroyed cities in Libya, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, and Iraq, look at the countless deaths all in the name of stealing resources. Bless Russian soldiers and may the angels guard them

2023 and we're seeing trench warfare. This is honestly so surreal.

I wish a quick end to this atrocious war, human souls are so precious not to be wasted

OLEH......thankyou sir

Really great report thank you

that chin strap was giving me real anxiety

I appreciate you covering Afghanistan for the past 20 years.. now all my friends whose families are left after they committed suicide can watch your videos and see why their child committed suicide after serving in Afghanistan

I really wish our msm hadn't been lying since 2014 about this conflict. None of this would have happened if you lot had been doing your jobs properly.

Thanks for the reporting. Brave people. Glory to Ukraine

RU-vid Patrick Lancaster has been covering this war for the past 8 years on the other side and is practically on the front line everyday. This is someone who has guts not some living room so called journalist who get a guided tour of the front line

Thank you. Been in war zones

To be fair that is the first time in a long long time Ive seen a reporter in the field in a conflict zone.

The sound of mortar shells coming in is scary enough to hear on video , can't imagine what its like being there

Excellent reporting!!❤

Amazing reporting.

Front line people retreating in pickup trucks tells us all we need to know. End it now.

This is crazy 😮

Great and very brave reporting. Keep safe everyone. You are all heroes 😊

Whatever they pay that correspondent, it is not enough! I was on edge of my seat this whole video, actually being there would be unimaginable

Ukraine should have honored the Minsk agreement

Hahahaha! I thought the Ukes were gonna be sipping Mai Tai's in Crimea after a couple of weeks! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Nice report from the front lines! Thank you!!

Right now I was waiting for the light elves from the report to call us "orcs", they lasted for 6 minutes, but in the end they could not stand it. For those who are interested in the causes of SWO - here is one of them.

First class reporting, however there will be no winners, only sad mothers, fathers and families!

First point for infantrymen, put on your gear correctly!! It safes lives!

NO MORE WAR

Russian drones? I thought they have only shovel....... How is that possible?????????????

He's so rattled that he never got that chin strap done up right.

I thought Russians ran out of equipment and can’t fight, you guys should be riding with your lights on in Caravan

Just eerie. Nothing more to add.

Nice work gentlemen

Praying for 🙏🇺🇦

British Reporters are Very Brave Stay Safe my Friend 😊

Question.... Is it some sort of unwritten rule that journalists can't adjust/wear their helmet straps correctly? I've seen more than one journalist wear them in the most bizarre ways

No way. Something people class as real journalism from the mail

Oh well

Free Ukraina

The way the reporter is wearing his helmet is driving me insane lol the chinstrap

Stay sober stay alive. Booze only makes depression worse. Your families need you. Thank you for your service.

Damn.. that guy wanted to get you close but he got you too close. I was worried about that. Incredible documentary though and you didn't even push a narrative

Slava Russia!

Going into a warzone without a weapon where the enemy disregards any rules of engagement or set standards is effing whacked.

Cool movie bro. Whens the release?

That is one brave journalist. I am shocked at how Richard and Jamie had the balls of steel to go there. Mind you, they are far from soldiers. Respect!

You could achieve the same effect with some simple recorded background shots and explosions, while walking through a secondary or even a trench dug for training? Guess we'll never know 😉 but my guess is that it's utter BS that you could get that close without calling in fire from the Russians.

bro is vlogging in a war i salute amen

Orcs? Remember when American soldiers in Vietnam used to call the Vietnanese Gooks? Russians aren't Orcs. They're human beings. Like us.

spooky stuff. thanks for showing us by braving the front.

Why send reporters to the front line and risk their lives? Not enough drone footage to be news worthy?

This could be in any part of the uk?

Those guys at the end really need to find the next windshield glass repair shop and get that crack taken care of.

Those trenches and dugouts are pretty impressive. Are they doing all that by hand?

It’s heartbreaking to watch, brave guys and no doubt ladies as well. I don’t think I could do it.

Serves yourselves right.

Freedom and justice to Ukrainia!

Toute L'affection et les encouragements de la France

They have to stop using red lighting at night because the enemy night vision equipment is sensitive to red wavelengths.

(Grass isnt cover, its concealment.) Great reporting.

The Ukrainian soldiers know what they're doing even though the fighting is tense on both sides. Glory freedom to Ukraine.

So basically they went and saw and ran away

Typical civy with his chin strap not adjusted properly. Nevertheless a brave man to be there and report what’s going on.

WHEN COMMENTS ARE TURNED OFF IT RESULTS IN THUMBS DOWN:)

Jeez, that guy couldn't even drive a Ute. No wonder they're losing so many of our tanks.

Its basically a trip back in time to experience the first world war. Just an incredible report.

Well done. An excellent insight into life in the trenches. All you need now is a companion episode up to your knees in mud next march!😂😂😂
