An episode of a battle by Russian Special Operations Forces (SSO), presumably in one of the rear areas of Ukraine, has been published. The video shows the storming of a stronghold of the Ukrainian army. The Russian Special Operations Forces detachment used several subgroups. One "attack" subgroup made a passage in the barriers, snipers worked to protect the perimeter. The second "capture" subgroup carries out a direct assault on the stronghold.

As a result of the SSO operation, the stronghold was captured, an unknown Ukrainian unit was captured, the video has been shortened.
