The video was posted on the unit's official YouTube channel.

"The combat operation of the 3rd Brigade, during which soldiers of the 1st and 2nd assault battalions stopped an attempt to break through the front line and cleared Krasnohorivka of enemy forces. The video footage was shot on the GoPro cameras of the raid participants," the accompanying text reads.

On the eve of the operation, the occupiers managed to advance in a certain area of the settlement and begin to equip it for defense. It was necessary to act quickly to dislodge the enemy, preventing them from gaining a foothold, the Third Assault Brigade emphasizes.

"Small arms battles took place among the damaged and completely destroyed private sector buildings. Sometimes it was extremely difficult to reach the occupшукі. To eliminate the enemy, the fighters used grenades and also worked with FPV drones. The video captures the moment of first aid to the wounded and their quick evacuation. Thanks to the prompt actions of the soldiers, all their comrades who were wounded in the battle were saved," the brigade said.

"As a result of the lightning-fast operation of the Third Assault Brigade, Krasnohorivka remained under the Ukrainian flag. The bridgehead for breaking through the front line was destroyed along with the enemy's manpower," the Third Assault Brigade reminded.
