Fearless under fire: Moment Ukrainian soldiers don’t even flinch as explosions erupt around them while carrying wounded comrade in new footage showing frontline combat

This is the incredible moment when Ukrainian soldiers are confronted with explosions erupting around them without hesitation while carrying a wounded comrade.

The new images showing the harsh reality of frontline fighting show the group of soldiers showing unwavering courage near Kharkiv and Khasiv Yar, Donetsk Oblast.

In the harrowing clip, troops from the 8th Special Operations Forces Regiment are seen carrying out a crucial evacuation while being targeted by heavy Russian gunfire.

They were also seen running through rubble and buildings engulfed in an orange glow as they repelled enemy attacks and cleared residential areas devastated by artillery.

As the group of soldiers make their way through the burning houses, crushed cars and mountains of rubble, they seem unfazed by the chaos and continue with courage and determination.

As thick clouds of smoke fill the air, two soldiers can be seen firing in the distance before the footage cuts to a clip of the fighters running into a partially collapsed house to investigate.

Two heroic soldiers are then filmed carrying a stretcher on either side while a wounded comrade lies bloodied on top.

Around them, bright orange flashes erupt in the nearby trees, but the military personnel don’t even flinch as they move forward.

You can see the fighting intensifying as it continued into the night, the black sky illuminated by the glow of flares and flashes of gunfire.

In another part of the incredible footage, soldiers are seen moving stealthily through tunnels and clearing residential areas of enemy forces.

The regiment’s bravery, teamwork and tactical precision are on display in abundance in the video, which shows the resolve of the war-torn country’s special operations unit.

Their bravery was praised on Instagram after the 8th Regiment uploaded the video to their official account with the comment: ‘Hearts of Gold, Balls of Titanium. Glory to Ukraine!’

Another wrote: ‘Evacuation of the wounded under enemy fire without blinking an eye.’

A third added: ‘How they didn’t flinch when the artsy round came before them…boss moves.’

It comes after Russia fired the new Oreshnik missile at the Ukrainian city of Dnipro on Thursday, after Ukraine pre-fired US ATACMS and British Storm Shadow long-range missiles deep into Russian territory.

The attack carried out by Ukraine was the first time British Storm Shadow missiles had been used to blast targets deep inside Russia. One image after the attack showed a written indentation on a piece of metal that read: ‘Storm Shadow’

Images shared on social media showed fragments of a British Storm Shadow missile in Marino, Kursk on November 20.

The Oreshnik, which means hazel, travels at a speed of approximately 13,370 kilometers per hour and can carry multiple nuclear warheads.

But Putin told the Russian nation in a televised address that the missile fired at a military-industrial site in Dnipro used conventional nuclear warheads.

After the Oreshnik firing, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov warned Britain and America about their “reckless” action in supplying long-range missiles to Ukraine.

Peskov said: “The main message is that the reckless decisions and actions of Western countries that produce missiles, deliver them to Ukraine and then participate in attacks on Russian territory cannot continue without a response from the Russian side.”

Last weekend, Putin boasted that no country in the world has the power to intercept the Oreshnik missiles, which fly ten times the speed of sound.

He said: ‘There is no countermeasure against such a missile today, nor a means to intercept it.

‘And I would like to emphasize again that we will continue to test this latest system. It is necessary to set up series production.’

He added: “No one in the world has such weapons. Sooner or later other leading countries will get them too. We are aware that they are evolving.”

The debris of the intermediate-range missile is now being studied by Ukrainian researchers, as historically it was the first time such a powerful weapon was used in the war.

Russia fired an experimental missile into Ukraine on November 21, Western government officials said. Ukraine initially accused Russia of firing an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) for the first time in history during an attack on Dnipro.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the use of the weapon, which can carry multiple nuclear warheads, a serious escalation and urged his allies to respond.

After the series of air raids, there are increasing concerns about the possible start of World War III.

Ukraine’s former military chief warned Friday that World War III is already underway, with Vladimir Putin’s autocratic allies North Korea, Iran and China openly supporting his forces on the battlefield.

Valery Zaluzhny, now Ukraine’s envoy to Britain, said at the UP100 awards ceremony in Kiev: “I believe that in 2024 we can absolutely believe that World War III has started.”

The general said that from this year onwards, Ukraine will no longer face Russia. Soldiers from North Korea stand in front of Ukraine.’

He made the comments after reports emerged that around 10,000 soldiers had been sent by Pyongyang to fight alongside Russian forces in the Kursk region, as Moscow seeks to replenish its forces and regain territory lost three months ago. of the country has decreased.

It comes after Moscow’s ambassador to Britain stated that Britain is now “directly involved” in the war following the Storm Shadow attack in Kiev on Russian territory.

When asked if Britain is “at war”, the Starmer told local BBC radio: “We are not at war, but Ukraine certainly is.” Sir Keir slammed Putin’s ‘irresponsible rhetoric’.

“Russia is the aggressor,” he said. “This war could end today if Putin is no longer the aggressor.”
