Earlier, footage of a raid on a house in Chasovoy Yar appeared on the Internet. It shows the paratrooper moving along the outer contour of the five-storey building, checking each of the apartments.
To enter the apartment next door, he climbed from one balcony to the other along the door between them, while answering at the same time.
A fighter with the call sign “Shershen” said the assault on the house began at five in the morning. After clearing four entrances, the group was unable to enter the fifth entrance for a long time. For seven hours the soldiers blew up the wall. “They fired and there was a machine gunner,” he said.
The paratroopers then decided to cross the balcony. “They opened the door and I started shooting,” the fighter said.
There were 12 Ukrainian soldiers there. Two were killed and four captured. Six more managed to escape.
The fighter has been in the operational zone for several months. During this time he participated in three assaults and was wounded three times.
Before the capture of the house, the pictures of which were spread on the Internet, he and the commander fought together for a neighbouring high-rise building. At the same time, they had one machine gun in good condition between them, because the other was cut by shrapnel. The commander was wounded. After providing first aid, the Hornet pulled the commander out.
