(NSFW) Ukrainian 3rd Assault Brigade VS. Wagner, Klishchiivka, Ukraine 05/2023
The video begins with the cameraman and squadmates clearing out a dugout Russian position. The cameraman and the squadmate to his left pour small arms fire into the hole, until the squadmate preps and tosses in a grenade at 0:25. They fall back as the grenade explodes, and as they set up to the left of it, a Ukrainian soldier goes down at 0:46. As the separate video linked above indicates, this is the second casualty the cameraman has witnessed in this incident, at close proximity and in relatively short order. The squad provides covering fire before the footage cuts to the wounded Ukrainian being retrieved at 01:00. As he is being dragged to safety, the cameraman provides cover as he and the squad suppresses. To the cameraman’s right at 01:13, we see the wounded man’s rescuer beginning to work on him.
