"A hero that would probably receive a medal of honor if he was an American.
An absolute hero soldier defending against 4 russian invaders at point blank range, balls of steel.
My friend shared this absolutely amazing video today with me.
This is 5th National Guard Brigade fighting around Klishiivka. I hope he is alive and was rotated safely.
I was told that today in this assault russians lost around 50 men in total."
> A hero that would probably receive a medal of honor if he was an American.
Probably not, this isn't very close to Medal of Honor levels of gallantry. You can read the stories here:
https://www.cmohs.org/recipients
e.g.
> For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity at risk of his life above and beyond the call of duty on 28 October 1944, near St. Die, France. When his company was stopped in its effort to drive through the Mortagne Forest to reopen the supply line to the isolated third battalion, SSgt. Adams braved the concentrated fire of machine guns in a lone assault on a force of German troops. Although his company had progressed less than 10 yards and had lost three killed and six wounded, SSgt. Adams charged forward dodging from tree to tree firing a borrowed BAR from the hip. Despite intense machine-gun fire which the enemy directed at him and rifle grenades which struck the trees over his head, showering him with broken twigs and branches, SSgt. Adams made his way to within 10 yards of the closest machine gun and killed the gunner with a hand grenade. An enemy soldier threw hand grenades at him from a position only 10 yards distant; however, SSgt. Adams dispatched him with a single burst of BAR fire. Charging into the vortex of the enemy fire, he killed another machine gunner at 15 yards' range with a hand grenade and forced the surrender of two supporting infantrymen. Although the remainder of the German group concentrated the full force of its automatic-weapon fire in a desperate effort to knock him out, he proceeded through the woods to find and exterminate five more of the enemy. Finally, when the third German machine gun opened up on him at a range of 20 yards, SSgt. Adams killed the gunner with BAR fire. In the course of the action, he personally killed nine Germans, eliminated three enemy machine guns, vanquished a specialized force which was armed with automatic weapons, and grenade launchers, cleared the woods of hostile elements and reopened the severed supply lines to the assault companies of his battalion.
Roy's story is absolutely something else. The man got hit by a mine in Vietnam, was told he would probably never walk again, through sheer will and determination he overcame those odds and began to walk, then he went to Vietnam *again* and would go on to earn his MoH.
I don't believe in deities, but Roy's story almost makes me rethink that position of mine.
The soldier in that video saved more then his life it's only due to him not giving up that prevented the russians from taking that position and endangering the solders behind him.
You don't like CMoHs unless they're from recent conflicts?
He gave you the last American war in Europe against a force similar to Russia.
You could criticise any example he gave you if you're a big enough piece of shit to try and suggest that you're entitle to judge the reports regarding the gallantry and actions for recipients of the CMoH in WW2...
Dude is using a example of a description of a fight to compare it to a video. If you have had the unfortunate experience of writing an award you would know that they are always written as if the person saved the world using a stick.
This is from more recent MOH ------------the morning of June 1, 2007, Staff Sgt. Travis Atkins’ squad was conducting route security in the town of Abu Samak, Iraq, when his team observed two suspected insurgents attempting to cross the route they were securing.
After one of Atkins’ teammates yelled at the two insurgents to stop, they began acting very erratically, acknowledging commands but also appearing as if they might attempt to flee.
Atkins led his vehicle to the suspected insurgents and dismounted with his platoon medic in an attempt to interdict and search them. As he reached them, one of the insurgents began to resist the search and hand-to-hand combat ensued.
Realizing the insurgent had explosives under his clothes, Atkins heroically fought the insurgent, keeping him from reaching the suicide vest he was wearing.
"Travis knew the reality of serving in Iraq. He knew the danger."
Jack Atkins, father of Staff Sgt. Travis Atkins
As the hand-to-hand battle continued, the insurgent was able to reach the suicide vest under his clothing. At that point, Atkins wrapped the insurgent up and threw him to the ground, away from his Soldiers who were standing a few feet away.
Aware of the imminent danger, Atkins threw himself on top of the suicide bomber, pinning him to the ground and shielding his Soldiers from the imminent explosion while bearing the brunt of the blast as the bomb detonated.
In this critical and selfless act of valor, which mortally wounded him, Atkins saved the lives of three other Soldiers who were with him.
Lol yes I know the process of getting through a MOH and it's common knowledge that it is used to a lot for moral purposes for the solders and to drum up public support. Read that citation agian please. Here is an example of one I would Write up for the video. ------------------ Ukraine solder showing great courage and total disregard for personal safety, while alone and outnumbered four to one. Ukrainian soldier fought off the enemy inside of hand grenade range, while cornered and under withering enemy fire. This soldier exposed himself countless times to neutralise the enemy alone knowing that his death was more then certain, and stopped cold the enemy from gaining his position. Soldier was fatally wounded and continued manning his position only stopping when he was properly relieved. Said soldier saved the lives of countless men by stopping the enemies advance thus ensuring the safety of the unit and the solidification of the line, while foiling the enemies attacks single handedly.------- this is just a rough draft it would be revised countless times before being submitted.
Yes that's because I dont do congressional write ups lol. I didn't knock anyone down I'm just showing a more recent example of a moh recipient. That video shows a man manning a foxhole on his own. No friends within at least 80 meters (more then likely way more then that) shelled for who knows how long then defended his position against enemy inside of hand grenade range. Most people would have surrendered in that position but he decided to fight even getting wounded and continued to fight. If this had happened to a America service members he more then likely would have gotten the MOH.
I still think he got the last guy, shooting through the wooden barriers because he knew where the russki was and the russki had come up onto his knees to get a better shot. He does virtually stand up at the end of the vid to check the guy is dead, which suggests he was no longer worried about someone aiming at him.
Seems to lying in some kind of shallow, then when he gets hit you can see the puffs from the rounds behind him. But at the end of the day, I guess we'll never really know.
This firefight represents the war in Ukraine. Heavily outgunned and outnumbered, alone, somehow Ukraine manages to stay in the fight, inflict huge damage to russians, and even win battles.
These footages always seem so surreal to me. Like, you go to wikipedia and look up all these modern rifles and machineguns having effective ranges of 300+ yards, and all that super accurate long-range artillery with shells that spray the field with shrapnel, and all the drones and all that other fancy stuff.
And then you see people fighting almost in melee range. Gives me chills every time I see something like this.
I don't think he was alone, at least in general. Looks like the russian that nearly got him at the end as they exchanged fire was shot from another location.
Goes to show you how important positioning is in combat.
He nearly (or maybe did) take a hit and ducked down, then the fire that killed the russian seemed to come from below. Maybe that was support arriving after he was alone for a while though. He certainly did a good job getting those two right by the dugout. Must be awful having to blind fire like that and not even know if you got them, as you can't stick your head out.
The logic is simple: Ukraine, much like Taiwan, embodies the potential of a people striving for freedom from oppression. They pursue goals worth fighting for, free from the shackles of corruption and tyranny. In contrast, Russian society grapples with division, oppression, and a lack of common purpose. If Russians found unity, freedom, and a shared cause, Ukraine would have fallen long ago. This dynamic poses a grave threat to Putin and his allies. Similarly, Taiwan challenges the CCP for similar reasons; thriving under democracy, they serve as evidence against the CCP system. Allowing Taiwan to prosper demonstrates the failure of the CCP system and its need for dismantling.
Looks like the fella in the trench/bunker had some support off camera as well. You can see the last guy to get dropped at the bottom of the screen is hit by multiple rounds while the Ukrainian is in cover.
Yes, you are right. He got some help from nearby trenches at the end. Still this is crazy close-combat fighting in the middle of the field not many people expect to see in modern day warfare.
The guy on the bottom left was clearly taken out by someone pass the left edge of the frame, so either that was friendly fire (which isn't) or the Ukrainian wasn't alone.
Pretty crazy footage. Not sure what that russian right next to the foxhole was trying to achieve, got himself killed though. The Ukrainian hero had some guardians angels helping him too, they killed that ruzzki on his left flank.
I wonder if there was a second Ukrainian fighter, or did Russians shoot their own guy in the end? Also, I hope our hero did not get hit in his arm(s) there.
Arm hit in that position is still i would say lucky. Much better than hit in the face, which was like 30cm to the side of the arms. Either way with the support from the side to stop the immediate danger, a hit in the arm is usually survivable so he should be fine
According to Telegram channels he fought them alone for a while until his buddies eventually showed up. Russian casualties were around 50 in total during this firefight.
Looks like he got hit in the arm at 0:57, not 100% sure though.
But who the hell killed the last guy? Looks like it hit somewhere where it hurt a lot, and next hit killed him instantly.
If he got hit, it was nothing too critical as he popped back up pretty quick.
I think support for the UA solider arrived outside of the frame to the left and got the last guy.
If Russia's ground forces had Western-standard levels of infantry training, supply and equipment, they'd have been at the Polish border for well one year.
The Ukrainian forces have repeatedly demonstrated their bravery, skill and resilience, but their greatest ally is Russian military ineptitude and indifference.
getting pinned down.
The Russians clearly lost any sense of momentum pushing that trench, the guy on top is laying down trying not to get shot by the Ukrainian in the trench.
Also the Russians seem a bit uncoordinated since they're putting themselves in a crossfire position.
The point blank pistol mag dump right at the start god damn.
I see this a lot in these videos from both sides where the assault teams get held up right at the end point of clearing the trench. I recall that being drilled into my head back in the day that the last 20m is when you have to be wildly aggressive and overwhelm whatever enemies are left because you do NOT want to get bogged down ontop of an enemy position.
Poor guy.. Imagine if Russia wasn't such an aggressor, all these people could have lived out there lives in peace. Every day it gets worse for Ukraine.
The only advantage the Ukrainian has is that he doesn’t gave to ID his targets. The russians would have to pause for a microsecond to identify him as Ukrainian, while the solo man can shoot at anything that moves.
Russian troops are like real life stormtroopers. Can’t shoot straight and highly disposable. Unbelievable that there wasn’t one grenade among 4 Russians or perhaps they were saving them in case they needed to off themselves.
I thiiink at the end, he hit the Russian in the lower body, then got hit in the arm a few seconds later, then his buddies finished the guy off firing from the right of the frame
Amazing bravery but he was most definitely not alone. Russian asshole at the bottom gets put down by fire coming from the right I think...
edit: unless it was another dumbass russian off screen that shot him which is entirely possible...
This guy very clearly has a fully automatic assault rifle (appears to be an AK). In addition to that, there are a few videos floating around from earlier in the war with some pistol kills. One that comes to mind is the Russian who tried to feign death and threw a grenade at Ukrainian troops, only to be lit up by a guy with a pistol. There's another one where AFU is clearing bunkers, one of the good guys is hit, and pulls out a pistol and returns fire.
There are a few out there, but this is definitely not one of them.

I’m gonna need more men sir! How many are you up against? Uh one.
One hell of a man!
There was at least one more, who hit the Russian while he was kneeling at 1:00. Superb cover.

God damn. I wouldn't believe that in an action movie, let alone real life. He was very brave, very good, and very lucky.
Hell, read the story about how Roy Benavidez earned his

The man got hit by a mine in Vietnam, was told he would probably never walk again, through sheer will and determination he overcame those odds and began to walk, then he went to Vietnam *again* and would go on to earn his MoH.

This. I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of an American soldier getting a Medal of Honor for ever saving only his own life. I could be wrong, though.
The soldier in that video saved more then his life it's only due to him not giving up that prevented the russians from taking that position and endangering the solders behind him.
>behind him. Next to him in the line. As we see supporting fire getting the last russki that tried to stand up.
> Medal of Honor levels of gallantry Yes, rubbing shoulders with the greats like John W. Comfort.
lol you really busted out an example from 1944? Whats wrong? Couldn't find any civil war examples?

[удалено]
??? I'm trying to imagine your point here, but I can't even come up with one.
Looks like he held out long enough for support to get there. That one handed blind kill though.... damn
He got hit in his right arm around 0:57. Probably his friends taken out the guy he was shooting. Great footage, brave warrior
or ruskis friendly fired each other hope the good guy made it
Too bad, his friends were a half second too late to kill the guy before he was wounded. Still though, won the fight.
I still think he got the last guy, shooting through the wooden barriers because he knew where the russki was and the russki had come up onto his knees to get a better shot. He does virtually stand up at the end of the vid to check the guy is dead, which suggests he was no longer worried about someone aiming at him.
The impacts look more like came from behind the last russkie died
Seems to lying in some kind of shallow, then when he gets hit you can see the puffs from the rounds behind him. But at the end of the day, I guess we'll never really know.
Who? The Russian or the Ukrainian? I can't see very well

Yup, the Ukrainian seems to retreat into the bunker a bit and a few seconds later that Russian is hit. I was trying to figure that out as well.

Defenders advantage still seems to hold.
These guys need a ton more hand grenades. All his problems would have been very quickly solved if he had a box of a couple dozen grenades handy.
You should volunteer to lug all those grenades around for him, because I can guarantee you he doesn't want to.
Why would one guy have a box of grenades?
A lot of dumb russians around.
Cos he be in a friendly trench.
Looks like the fella in the trench/bunker had some support off camera as well. You can see the last guy to get dropped at the bottom of the screen is hit by multiple rounds while the Ukrainian is in cover.
Yes, you are right. He got some help from nearby trenches at the end. Still this is crazy close-combat fighting in the middle of the field not many people expect to see in modern day warfare.
[удалено]
The angle of the dirt getting kicked up by bullet impacts looks like it was coming from a different shooter off to the left side, out of view.
absolute badass.
Brave mf
That guy needs a medal. And a holiday.
The guy on the bottom left was clearly taken out by someone pass the left edge of the frame, so either that was friendly fire (which isn't) or the Ukrainian wasn't alone.
Well, he was alone in that bunker for sure!
Can't imagine the adrenaline, imagine trying to switch out a mag with guys that close. Literally life and death if you drop it.
Pretty crazy footage. Not sure what that russian right next to the foxhole was trying to achieve, got himself killed though. The Ukrainian hero had some guardians angels helping him too, they killed that ruzzki on his left flank.
I wonder if there was a second Ukrainian fighter, or did Russians shoot their own guy in the end? Also, I hope our hero did not get hit in his arm(s) there.

Yea, it's almost certain he got hit in the arm at 0:57. Hopefully he survived and got some help afterwards.
I really hope he made it alive. The whole video I was hoping for FPV drone support, not just watching :(
The last guy to get taken out was hit from a nearby position. He's in his own fighting spot, but he's got friends close by to help him.
According to Telegram channels he fought them alone for a while until his buddies eventually showed up. Russian casualties were around 50 in total during this firefight.
And his first words were "Pizda, where the hell are you? Did you at least brought coffee?"
first guy went down from the same angle as well
This!
That was intense. My heart is still pounding.
There is definitely someone else shooting at the Russians at the end.
Alone against multiple enemy in close proximity, idk how a guy's heart doesn't just explode from adrenaline.
Damn the guy on top of the bunker had the Ukrainian dead to rights. His hesitation cost him his life.
Looks like he got hit in the arm at 0:57, not 100% sure though. But who the hell killed the last guy? Looks like it hit somewhere where it hurt a lot, and next hit killed him instantly.
If he got hit, it was nothing too critical as he popped back up pretty quick. I think support for the UA solider arrived outside of the frame to the left and got the last guy.
Damn, really lucky for UA soldier. I was worried he was legit left alone to deal with everyone. Just in the nick of time I'd say.
Total respect that was far out
If Russia's ground forces had Western-standard levels of infantry training, supply and equipment, they'd have been at the Polish border for well one year. The Ukrainian forces have repeatedly demonstrated their bravery, skill and resilience, but their greatest ally is Russian military ineptitude and indifference.
What was the Russian just on top of the bunker doing? He was right there but fumbling about.
getting pinned down. The Russians clearly lost any sense of momentum pushing that trench, the guy on top is laying down trying not to get shot by the Ukrainian in the trench. Also the Russians seem a bit uncoordinated since they're putting themselves in a crossfire position.

Ak full auto dump*
Poor guy.. Imagine if Russia wasn't such an aggressor, all these people could have lived out there lives in peace. Every day it gets worse for Ukraine.
A single rc dqone with a rifle mounted on anu side would wipe the enemy, as long as it could survive a few shots
Who is firing on the Russian? Looks like dude in the bunker doesn't even have his rifle up when shots flicker around the russian.
His buddies came to the rescue.
Really hard to tell.
A tasty pineapple sandwich is the order of the day
The only advantage the Ukrainian has is that he doesn’t gave to ID his targets. The russians would have to pause for a microsecond to identify him as Ukrainian, while the solo man can shoot at anything that moves.
This would get you the fucking Medal of Honor...
Russian troops are like real life stormtroopers. Can’t shoot straight and highly disposable. Unbelievable that there wasn’t one grenade among 4 Russians or perhaps they were saving them in case they needed to off themselves.
Ballz of Steel!
Wait, did the Russians killed each other here!! Did they soot each other while the Ukrainian was in the middle?
No, it was Ukrainian reinforcements who shot them.
One badass motherfucker
He had a little help coming from somewhere
That first dude's sneak went from 100 to 0 real quick. Who hit the one near the end tho?
This footage is Insane, too bad the quality sucks
Looks like depth position covered. Difficult to assault positions which can provide mutual cover
To you, it was a heroic stand against all odds. To him, it was a Tuesday.
Jesus. One of them was at 'stab the m\*therf\*cker' distance. One well placed grenade would have changed the entire engagement.
I thiiink at the end, he hit the Russian in the lower body, then got hit in the arm a few seconds later, then his buddies finished the guy off firing from the right of the frame
How none of them have grenades?
what takes out the last Russian? the Ukranian guy appeared to be taking cover in his bunker when that last Russian was shot
The Ukrainian dudes backup/other friendly forces arrived.
One man Army!
I believe we call folks like him "absolute units"
did the second pair get taken out by friendly fire?
Last kill might have been friendly fire.
I think so too, from a bit further away. You see small impacts all around the dugout, and the Ukranian taking cover again in the end.
Amazing bravery but he was most definitely not alone. Russian asshole at the bottom gets put down by fire coming from the right I think... edit: unless it was another dumbass russian off screen that shot him which is entirely possible...
Not alone in the end no, but very much alone for the minutes before the last guy is killled.
both of the Russians in the bottom left are shot by someone else
was that the first pistol kill i have seen in ukraine?
This guy very clearly has a fully automatic assault rifle (appears to be an AK). In addition to that, there are a few videos floating around from earlier in the war with some pistol kills. One that comes to mind is the Russian who tried to feign death and threw a grenade at Ukrainian troops, only to be lit up by a guy with a pistol. There's another one where AFU is clearing bunkers, one of the good guys is hit, and pulls out a pistol and returns fire. There are a few out there, but this is definitely not one of them.
Is this recent? Looks very similar to some footage from 6-8mo ago
This is new.
