Ukrainian forces slug it out with Russian troops near Kharkiv. The Ukrainian unit in question is a battalion formed by members of a national police unit. The video opens with Russian artillery pounding buildings before transitioning to shots of Ukrainian troops attempting to clear those buildings. We see some clashes with small arms and grenades, and a Russian occupied building being struck by a rocket. Grenades and rifle fire kill or wound the occupiers, and one injured Russian attempts to crawl to safety but is discovered and eliminated. The Russian attempt to open another front by enveloping Kharkiv from the north has largely bogged down, becoming another meat grinder for Russian troops.
