Ukraine: Enemy in the Woods — BBC Documentary

Follows the 210th Special Battalion "Berlingo" on the frontline of the war against Russia, filmed by the soldiers themselves as they try to defend a vital railway line, the capture of which would enable Russia to mount a direct attack on Ukraine's second largest city Kharkiv. The film examines the lives of the 99-strong military company as they face sustained Russian assaults, presenting a ground-level view of the war through the eyes of the troops fighting it.

Highlights

12th National Guard Brigade Azov released footage of their work in Kreminna.

Video courtesy of "Special Forces Detachment Pirates" of the 12th NGU Brigade and Mr. Frostovik, a 2022 Mariupol / Azovstal veteran and former POW now back into the ranks of the Azov Brigade.

The units lineage traces back to the original Azov battalion that was subsequently reformed and expanded into a regiment. During the Siege of Mariupol the Regiments both battalions participated in the defense effort. Many of its members were killed, wounded or captured with a small number of its members being airlifted out of Azovstal by ukrainian army aviation, including the Chief of Staff, Bohdan Krotevych callsign Tavr.

With subsequent releases of Mariupol POWs and the Azov Regiment leadership, the unit was once again expanded and went from the two battalion strong regiment to a 6 infantry battalions strong brigade, still part of the National Guard as before.

Many of original Azov veterans have rejoined the ranks of the brigade.

Highly graphic.

Yet another Rybar released video of Russian KSSO (their equivalent of JSOC) footage. FPV, Lancet, Shahed use in it alongside Senezh and possibly Kubinka-2 combat footage.

Newly released russian KSSO (Senezh unit) video, mostly recycled footage but some is released for the first time, it all appears to be in the same general place and timeframe as the last released video. Sumy / Chernihiv / Kharkiv oblast border areas, summer 2022 / 2023 (maybe)
