Extraordinary footage posted by a Ukrainian battalion shows what is happening in the trenches on the frontline.

The commander with the body-worn camera is in constant communication with someone who has an oversight of the situation.

[Daithi O Donoghue]

The commanders leadership and tight control of his team under such conditions is incredible.

[WilfChadwick]

After 2:10 when he calmed down, yes. The guy he took out at 50 yards forced him to take control of himself, then he was spot on. This is heavily edited, standing up, shouting at the enemy, in a fire fight, is not a good, long-term combat method. Let's hope someone tells him that. Lots of people praising him into getting himself neutralised.

[yfelwulf]

They're probably dead by now

[Philip P. Stanil]

@yfelwulf, не са - загубата им е един боец!

[Content_enjoyer]

@WilfChadwick Yeah he was lucky no one squeezed a shot in there. But I call bullshit about the editing.

[WilfChadwick]

@Content_enjoyer erm, ok, but considering I've watched the original, there's not much else I can say, except for, why tf would I say it, if I hadn't seen it?

[Silvio Victor Campos]

The kind of commander every soldier wants to have. Tremendous respect.

[Aylin Guluzade]

Tremendous respect for losing the battle

[charles villegas]

@Aylin Guluzade losing the battle? they literally won this by holding the kromove road and still 11 days later Ukrainians still have it under control

[Aylin Guluzade]

@joggercrimewave spell "losing" with one 'O'

6.) В курсе ли американцы и граждане Европы что интеллект и предрасположенность к фашизму никак не связаны. У руских нет иммунитета к пропаганде, даже если есть высокий интеллект. Рецидив имперского величия будет повторяться многократно, пока росейская федерация существует как единое государство. 7) Что США думают о руских политических диссидентах заброшенных ФСБ и формирующих у американского истеблишмента положительное отношение к русской культуре с целью сохранения империи в текущих границах после Путина? Представители "русской оппозиции", такие как Шендерович, Навальный (его семья и коллеги), Гудков, Ходорковский, Латынина, Собчак и десятки других несут наибольшую опасность, так как по своей сути являются законсервированной в Европе кремлевской интеллигенцией, которая прямо не поддерживают войну, но завуалированно делает все, чтобы Запад и США помогли им сохранить русский мир в текущих его границах. 8) Знают ли американцы и европейцы, что верноподданичество, шовинизм и ЛЮТАЯ нетерпимость к чужому успеху - вот главные особенности всех характеров, описанных в русских произведениях? Это основной нарратив, который руские экспортируют на Запад. Вот что писал руский поэт А.С. Пушкин своему сокурснику - "Я конечно презираю отечество мое с головы до ног, но мне досадно, если иностранец разделяет со мною это чувство". Достоевский - это не русская культура. Достоевский - это профессиональная государственная пропаганда в царской россии русского образа жизни. 9) Известно ли американцам что Соловьев, Киселев, Скобеева и Симоньян (главные ведущие в prime-time на центральных TV каналах россии последние 10-15 лет) не виноваты в расчеловечивании (дегуманизации) россиян? Каждый день в своих эфирах они угрожают американцам и европейцам, только потому что простые русские "люди" (80-84%) мечтают нанести по вам ядерный удар. Путин - это не просто президент, Путин - это отражение русской ментальности, это вожак стада, с абсолютно криминальным сознанием. В своем подавляющем большинстве русские хотят только одного - крови и реванша за распад СССР. Русские не смогут смирится с вашим успехом никогда. 10) Понимают ли в США разницу между Геббельсом и ведущим аналитических программ Соловьевым, с которым его часто сравнивают? Если Геббельс действительно вдохновлял немецкое общество на тотальную войну, то в россии было все наоборот: простой русский народ вдохновил Путина на войну против цивилизации, не дав Владимир Владимировичу потратить награбленное. Бенефициарами проекта "специальная военная операция" являются простые руские "люди".

[Fuk You]

That was some damn fine grunt work there...almost brought a tear to my eye, beautifully done, unfortunate and tragic though war may be. Your countrymen deserve peace with warriors that great in your ranks.

[Alex S]

The unit is called DaVinci Wolves after its fallen leader. DaVinci was one of the youngest soldiers to be awarded the Hero of Ukraine in his mid-twenties.

[Suiciderification]

Yes.💔

[Wiktor Radecki]

Prawdziwi bohaterowie. Real heroes!

[Za pobedu zapada]

Heroes to those Russian soldiers who gave their lives for their homeland, and not to some Ukrainians who receive weapons from NATO Slava Russia 🇷🇺🪖🇦🇷

[JxP]

@Za pobedu zapada Well, in most of the videos from the war it seems like the Russian soldiers tend to give their lives away quite quickly without inflicting any major damage to the Ukrainian soldiers. Yes, Ukrainians indeed receive weapons from NATO but hasn't Russia also got alliances? Don't they have weapons themselves? Even if the Ukrainians had the same equipment as Russians have they'd still win because of their efficient teamwork. These Russian soldiers have no idea what they're doing, awful teamwork. These poor men are sent on a war without proper training and most of them die.

[Bek Akbarov]

@JxP ну и где сейчас твои украинцы? Бахмут чей?

[Willie McDowell]

If I ever had to fight in the trenches I would want to be under that Commander that man was really good leading his troops. he did not let his emotions take over. he kept his men focused on the goal and not from huddling in a hole. God bless this man. I pray he makes it home to his family.

[Silver Letter]

Only an idiot fights in a trench. A smart person flees and saves themselves.

[Kiab Toom Lauj]

So true. The dude is not only smart & in control (of a deadly situation), but also fearless... telling the men under his command to take cover, even when he himself was exposed and out of bullets...

[Попов Виталий]

Этого черта

[Storm83.]

This commander died like a dog, all the other elves under his command also died😅

[Wielie0305]

@Storm83. Bot…

[x Seds x]

The fact there was a squad literally 20 metres away pushing their position and had a grenade lobbed right over his head, his leadership and thinking on his feet saved these lads and it’s truly inspiring

[duskmoon]

It's incredible. Trench warfare like that hasn't been seen or captured on video in years. True there was the skirmish back in 2014. But this is on an entirely different level. What an incredible Commander.

[Nark of Mexico]

Gives just a small insight as to the realities on the frontline behind all the politics and leopard 2 photo shoots

[tater anus]

Actually there was the Iran Iraq War, it rapidly devolved into trench warfare. Also that "skirmish" in 2014 actually has been going on ever since it just died down in scale.

[ua]

У нас война идет с 2014 года. С 2016 война начала утихать и превратилась в позиционную, а в 2022 она приняла характер полномасштабной

[Alex Mikh]

11+) Понимают ли в США что войну можно остановить только развалив Россию на суверенные государства? Что плохого в 30-50 независимых государствах, которые были под оккупацией русских сотни лет??? Зачем нужно внешнее управление? Чтобы что? Русских воспитывали цари, воспитывали коммунисты, воспитывали демократы и нечего не воспитали. Вы хотите потратить еще триллионы долларов или евро налогоплатильщиков, чтобы усмирить бешенную собаку? Не проще ли и не гуманнее ли будет ее усыпить? Я не знаю ни одного украинца убитого американцем или англичанином. Но я знаю тысячи украинцев, замученных и убитых рускими тварями, под эгидой руского мира. Не бурятского, не чеченского, не российского, а РУССКОГО. Именно руские гонят бурятов на смерть а не наоборот. 12) Почему США бояться, что утечет ядерное оружье? В РФ всего несколько баз хранения, их сложно проконтролировать? Продукты даже слабого распада оставляют радиационный след? Нет ничего опаснее чем оружье в руках русских имперцев ненавидящих весь мир. Что думают на счет денуклеаризации (denuclearization) российской федерации? Смогут ли помочь с утилизацией ядерных зарядов, у которых давно истёк срок годности? 13) США и Европа обеспокоены тем что не смогут справится с беженцами в случае гражданской войны в россии??? США и Европа рассматривают сценарий, при котором регионы, оккупированные рускими просто отделятся на основании признаков национального самоопределения? От куда утверждение что будет гражданская война? Возможно возникнет несколько небольших вялотекущих конфликтов из-за спорных территорий (Чечня-Дагестан и т.д.). Что они думают об этом... 14) США обеспокоены тем что распад РФ усложнит логистику сырья и повысит цены? Да, гнать за бесценок сырье больше никто не будет. Может дело и правда в том что Западу просто нужна одна помойка с централизованным управлением, которую выгодно доить? Верно ли предположение, что США ищут нового претендента на трон в России, в среде так называемых "хороших русских", умело притворяющихся русской оппозицией? 15) Куда при таком развитии событий вы денете русских фашистов, составляющих примерно 75-84% (зависит от региона) всего взрослого населения россии? Вы думаете русские захотят свободы? В этом ваше основное заблуждение. Русские ненавидят всех, кто пытается снять с них кандалы. И дело не в воспитании. Фашизм уйдет только после распада империи. Если русизм (RussiZm = Fascism) не осудить, то русские не сделают правильных выводов. 16 PS) Помогите уничтожить pyccкую фашистскую империю и освободить оккупированные народы России. Иначе вашим детям придется расплачиваться за ваши ошибки, но уже своей кровью.

[Tommy BoBommy]

My god, those 4 minutes felt like 40. What a time to be alive where we can watch a war almost real time. It’s so sad.

[Руслан Романчук]

Можешь поучаствовать приезжай в УКРАИНУ мы всем рады

[ua]

Оригинальное видео длится 11минут. Бой длился 2 часа. Один наш парень погиб до начала боя от артиллерии. Больше в этом бою из наших никто не погиб и не был ранен

[Sofia Arantes]

@Руслан Романчук Happy?😐

[John Wanjau]

@ua what is the name of this brave commander I love this hero the way he organise this fight salva Ukraine from kenya

[Shadøw Knight]

War is not the same. Now we got a front row seat of what’s going down in the trenches. Gut-wrenching but eye-opening😢 Love from America! 🇺🇸

[TrueMoonSlumbers]

Sure we aren't getting the same "20,000 men killed in the first action" kind of brutality we saw in WW1, but they're doing an excellent job showing us the gut-wrenching reality of what these men see every day. Trench warfare has changed since then, instead of pounding the lines with HOURS of artillery followed by massed infantry, it's now a constant state of vigilance with on and off bombings, drone strikes, units or squads of infantry and vehicle support. The tactics changed true, but the feeling of it hasn't.

[AkimboDice]

@TrueMoonSlumbers hes talking about the fact that all this can be viewed from home. Not about the number of combatants in the field.

[cgaud1n69]

If this commander lives through the end of the war, they will need a lift to carry all his medals. That was the stuff of legends...

[Avery Davis]

He didn't, his troop was named after him however

[cgaud1n69]

I am sorry he did not make it to see a free Ukraine. God bless him and give him eternal peace.

[n]

@Avery Davis It's not DaVinci on video. It's another part of "DaVinci Wolves", commander with call sign "Quiet". They're alive.

[Lucca]

medal? his words are worth a million medals

[Chris Gritzmacher]

And a separate lift for his balls.

[Ashley Riot]

Oh my God. The commander responds so quickly to everything. He is so brave.

[Dmitry Noel]

And most likely he is so dead. Musicians took control of these positions.

[Dmitry Noel]

@Sergey Bebenin Азов тоже постит, но есть нюанс))

[Honor[R]]

@Sergey Bebenin no, he is dead :( Wagner took these positions without prisoners .. already confirmed

[VCW Loves]

He's a true commander--accounting for his men and those who may be injured is a leader that I would follow into battle.

When that soldier yelled to his commander to "be safe please brother" when the commander ran out of the bunker gave me chills. those boys needed that cool headed leader

[Barons History Times]

What else was being said, please?

Where is the credits for the brave Russian soldiers storming the trenches, their sacrifice will never be forgotten🇷🇺🇯🇵

@Harunobu たけひろ yea unfortunately they will be.

[Данило Янчук]

@Harunobu たけひろ they are forgotten already

[True Man]

The unwavering determination of the Ukrainian armed forces has impressed the world. For over a year, they have demonstrated unparalleled dedication and resilience. Those living in peaceful and democratic nations should feel a deep sense of gratitude as the Ukrainian armed forces are also defending the very foundation of humanity. I extend my prayers and utmost respect to these brave warriors.

[Iron Maniac]

Well said. They have earned the right to be a member of NATO. Defenders of freedom.

He done everything perfect, Remained Calm, Talking to his Soldiers all the way through Combat, instructions on moving to different areas of trench. In contact with drone operator at the same time. While also telling his unit to reload and save Ammunition he Saved there lifes because of these steps taken.

[Волков Владимир]

Не вижу здесь никакого спокойствия. Истошные крики и русский мат.

[Гость]

@Волков Владимир Не сравнимо спокойней ОбосРоссия делала шаги доброй воли в Киевской, Черниговской, Сумской, Харьковской, Николаевской, Херсонкой областях. И, конечно, с острова Змеиный 😂

[Волков Владимир]

@Гость "ОбосРоссия " Исковеркать имя, название страны- в этом вам нет равных. Признак ума и интеллекта. "Киевской, Черниговской, Сумской, Харьковской, Николаевской, Херсонкой областях". По крайней мере наши не прятались в городах за спинами жителей. Шагов доброй воли вы не понимаете, вас надо ставить перед фактом. А про остров Змеиный, на вашем месте, я бы вообще молчал. Вы со своим островом и "Призраком Киева" живёте в другой вселенной.

Put tears in my eyes, no one should have to go through this horror. Amazing leadership, so much respect for all of these incredible people.

[Alex S]

So sad they're in their early to mid-twenties.

[jay johnson]

Yep but not for long.. In the future an educated humanity will not stand for war. We will demand to end them when we become powerful enough as unified peoples to make change. One day my friend..

[EladG 2005]

"without fear there's no bravery" these men are warriors

[Eric Mar]

I pray for these brave men and their country.

[Jim Jones]

Balls of steel, incredible courage, everyone was hidding in the bunker he lead them out and prevailed on the battle, he had aimed fire while his friends fired wildly into the dirt. What a leader.

They just need a brain to know they are fighting on the wrong side and for the worng leader Ze lenkew

Some really impressive soldiering here on display. Ukrainian warriors are something else.

The stuff of which legends are made, glory to the heroes.

[Lex De Obésean]

That was insanely intense, not only the combat visuals but the leader's control of the situation 😮👍🇺🇦

[Ms c]

Yes, in such situations, the main thing is save control

[Gian Clavejo]

The way that commander led his men in such a tough situation was nothing short of amazing, i really hope ukraine win this war

Leader of the month goes to this guy!!! Great job guys keep it up... Glory to the heroes God Bless 🙏🏾 Glory to Ukraine!!!🇺🇦💪💪💪 Respect!!!!🇺🇸💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾

[Monkè]

Man that dude has got the situation dialed in perfectly, not tunnel visioning and keeping everything in mind that he needs to

[Emmanuel Querol]

That commander is sharp! He can oversee both areas together; the one from a distance and the one where his men are and making sure there's no gap. He held the line so effectively.

[Miles]

This is such a brave, quick minded, intelligent leader, if he were to tell me to close my eyes and low crawl through the depths of Hell I would, this man needs some form of medal of honor, 2 in fact, 1 for each massive ball that he has

[Patricia Leask]

So intense but so organised & brave thinking of each soldier at same time ; I pray they all get through to victory

[LIVE YOURS From-T288GB]

Same for Russia?

Mejor testimonio de combate de la historia. Jamás visto!..."" 🏅👍

[Flip Dunn-Davies]

Wow this is probably the most incredible battlefield footage I've ever seen. It is also shocking how similar to the Western front of WWI this is like, I still do a double take at the Russian who throws the grenade and how close he comes up to the position. The only positive thing I think that can come from this horror will be some amazing poetry and other literary creations also like the WWI

[Nate Myers]

Amazing footage. I'm surprised they showed the two Russian soldiers getting taken out as well.

[youngsta Young]

Have younseen the one with the one guy fighting a team and winning thst was closer than this and he took a tank out. Really good footage loads of rounds coming in just methodically did his job

Good job commander, stay strong my friends and keep safe your teams!!!

[lil Sebastian]

The guy with the camera wiped out two squads on two fronts pretty much by himself.... the crazy part is he is a volunteer. He has a channel here on KZbin and he and his friends privately purchased firearms and volunteered to fight the Russians. He removed the videos between yesterday and today of he and his friends prior to volunteering. He is just a private Ukrainian civilian but he moved and communicated like he is prior service.

[L C]

rumor has it he is wicked good on the airsoft fields too - for all the airsoft lovers, yes, i made that up

[Werti Opo]

Artemevsk is gone for ukronazis, and so is the uk dream of a new empire 😂

[None None]

what's his channel

[LosT4088]

Nothing tells a russian bot than "Artemovsk" and "UK dream of empire" in one sentence. And somehow these 2 are connected

[iPlayZ]

This guy is acting like one of these pro softair players who are also able to outplay whole squads on their own, but this is real war. Crazy guy hope he stays alive!

The dangerous reality of brave soldiers defending their home! They deserve our respects!

[GreatWhiteSquid]

Great communication. Great teamwork.

I was gonna comment the commander and then read all the existing ones on him, excellent man, outstanding skills. He will lead his men, they will prevail. Slava Ukraini! 🇺🇦❤

@Helmut Straner невероятно как так вышло что эти супер люди, миллионной армией не могут уничтожить 250 тысяч атакующих?

I am amazed at this commanders leadership badassness. But I can't ignore the badassery of the closest orc, which threw a grenade while being constantly hit with bullets. they were close enough to see each others faces it like ww1 all over again.

[Sergii Stef.]

I wonder what kind of drugs he was given..to get so many shots and be able to throw a grenade

[Dufus]

This is the most intense battle footage Ive ever seen

@Дмитрий Ан Димон, а на фига тебе эта Британия. Ты там был? Вот я - был, там замечательные люди живут, добрые, душевные, отзывчивые. Плохих, конечно, тоже хватает, но как по мне, в РФ степень агрессии в обществе несоизмеримо выше. И всё надо нападать на кого-то, кого-то захватывать, вместо того, чтобы свои проблемы решать.

[Дмитрий Ан]

Британские медсестры будут носить нательные камеры для предотвращения домогательств и изнасилований на фоне большого количества случаев сексуального насилия в больницах. А это из сегодняшних новостей. В России такое возможно?

[Bogdan Dzirun]

@Дмитрий Ан конечно не возможно, ведь на россии медицины нет

[MudHoney91]

Amazing footage. It's so strange seeing that barren landscape with the splintered stripped trees. Just like the old WW1 WW2 photographs fighting over the same ground. War never changes..

[Volodymyr Kavun]

rest in piece Warrior 😞🇺🇦

[Phipsy]

What did the commander die?

[Pjetro]

What a commander! God bless him and protect him from the damn orcs.

[Вадим Цветков]

аж холодный пот прошиб. Красавцы, просто красавцы!

[DOWN TUNED]

The commander in control here is top quality hope he is well and gets through the defence of Bakhmut he deserves commendation 👌 Shows how important a good leader is in combat he was on everyone and everything whilst engaging enemy and under fire. This video should be shown to all potential NCO's on cadre and officers in training

[Ricky Hunter]

He also took a higher more open position at his own risk to provide that fire control! Balls of brass ... and brains to boot!

[jacky yo]

@Иван Мартыненко I think u got Russian troops confused

[Longshucks Gaming]

not to mention assigning sectors for each man to watch so they avoided tunnel vision and being snuck up on

[DOWN TUNED]

We all could go on dissecting his drills, but the bottom line is that his leadership is an example to others. 100% if I ever served again, having a commander even half this good, I would follow them into whatever

[GORN]

This guy is the real deal. Incredible leadership.

[Edward Greller]

Up close and VERY personal. Good work brothers!

[Hoferl]

Бережи вас Бог! Повертайтеся до своєї родини безпечно!

[Saint GeorgeFloyd]

OMG this captain is insane, he single handidly wiped out an orc assault team. He directed his team and got everyone into position

[S Kiselev]

I HAVE SUCH HUGE RESPECT FOR THESE GUYS!!!!!

[Kory Ogden]

Don't we all

[Гадя Петрович Хренова]

Приходи на фронт. Хватит жрать пиво и смотреть с дивана Ютуб

[Aionfrag]

Keep fighting 👊🇵🇱

[DAviation]

With all the advanced technology, it ultimately always ends up being soldiers, in trenches, on a battlefield. Very reminiscent of a WW1 battlefield.

[Eshod Aguila]

God bless all the men on the frontlines

[Albert Shabani]

Great leadership, great communication with his subordinates, and great coordination with the drones operators who seems to be his eyes in the sky. Hence the orcs were getting exterminated like rats in the field

[Vlad Sta]

Legend has it after the fight he had to sit down he was too tired carrying those two large obstacles between his legs ! 🇺🇸🇺🇦💪💪

[Paladynwiecznegostażu zkrajupolszy]

Its so insane that we saw those people life end right there. And yet we all feel so disconnected form this.

[Gavin Lew]

Yea, there's no respawn in war. It's not like Airsoft. People go straight to heaven.

[Content_enjoyer]

These gentlemen seriously deserve the best when they come home. Even if this is the start of a World War, this mess will end for them one day. Otherwise, great shots gentlemen.

[Vectar]

They didn’t got home - Bakhmut is a dead trap. People are getting cut in pieces there every day… look at these trees in video, shrapnel just cutting all down.

[Content_enjoyer]

@Vectar Well surely, someone MUST come home, Ukrainian or Russian, SOMEONE is going home, SOMEONE will say they were in Bakhmut, people have survived worse than Bakhmut. I'm not saying there guys are alive but it is humanly impossible for someone to not come home.

[张进]

real heroes out there!👍

[Will]

this almost 5 minute combat video is heavier than 99% of the fighting we did in iraq and afghanistan over 20 years. Insane how gnarly this war is.

[Luv•Jaz]

Yes, its very sad. 😢

[Crax]

Stabiler Typ ! Bleibt gesund Jungs passt auf euch auf und macht weiter so verteidigt euer Zuhause!!!

[Artur Ivhenko]

Пацаны вы красавцы все там хорошо отработали вообще супер

[cYYAN!]

If I had a squad leader like this I would feel blessed.

[MERSIFULL WOLF]

Same

[Ondene]

Because of how close the Russians were I actually thought they were Ukrainians at first, with everyone shooting Russians far into the distance. That shot of the Russian throwing the grenade is like something out of a movie.

[celtibero]

¡¡ Larga vida a los heroes Ukranianos Slava Ukraini , Fuerza Ukrania !! 💪💪🦁🦁🦁🦁
