Good example of a competent infantry engagement in this war. Three Russian soldiers are attacking a Ukrainian strongpoint held by seven soldiers south of Orekhov (this is also the *scale* of the average infantry engagement in the SMO). The Russian assault team is supported by FPV drones. The Ukrainians lose a few KIA, the rest retreat, the strongpoint is taken, the fleeing survivors are attacked with drones. No casualties on the Russian side. Nothing spectacular, just very clean rifle-and-grenade work and well-organized drone support.
The soldiers belong to the 417th Recon Battalion, 42nd Guards Motor Rifle Division (nicknamed "Steel Division" after their heroic defensive actions around Rabotino during the 2023 Ukrainian offensive). I'm told there's GoPro footage of this engagement, too, so maybe we'll see that later.
