Azeri SOF Conduct Ground Assault And Throw Grenades
Published 2 years ago
Footage from the Second Karabakh War (2020), between Azerbaijan and Armenia, gives the viewer a first-person perspective of an Azeri Special Operations ground assault toward Armenian defensive positions.
The sound of near-miss rifle rounds snap through the air and debris flies up around the troops. Multiple grenades are thrown toward the Armenian positions during the advance. It's not clear from the short segment if the assault was successful or if any ground was taken.
The 2nd Karabakh War broke out in late 2020 when Azerbaijan entered into territory that is politically theirs, but was controlled by ethnic Armenian local governments. Azerbaijan's years of investments into advanced military hardware, including various unmanned aerial systems resulted in a short and brutal decisive victory over the Armenian military, which relied heavily on near-obsolete Cold War-era equipment and weaponry.
