A nail-biter from the 225th Assault Regiment

Описание: Yesterday's (Jan 12, 2026) slug-fest in a settlement in the Huliaipole sector (Zaporizhzhia).

Taking advantage of unflyable weather and dense morning fog, the Russians dismounted around 20 well-equipped storm troopers, who immediately dispersed and attempted to seize the village.

For nearly 40 minutes, a small team from the 3rd Assault Battalion of the 225th Separate Assault Regiment held off the enemy with rifle fire alone. They managed to eliminate part of the force and pin the rest inside buildings.

Fortunately, by then the weather had improved enough to risk deploying a "Kazhan" heavy bomber drone.

After the initial "ironing" by a heavy bomber, the rest of the Russian assault force was finished off with dropper drones and a few FPVs.

Thanks to drone support and competent battle control, fighters of the 225th Assault Regiment sustained no casualties.

This nail-biting footage from the battle control room shows only the last moments of the battle, before the drones arrived. The Ukrainian team had to fend off the numerically superior Russians for over 30 minutes before the drones could be flown.
