RUNNING SCARED: Russian Soldiers Flee Base As It Is Shelled By Ukrainian Troops
Ukrainian troops have boasted about showing Russia “who’s boss” by bombing an enemy position and sending soldiers running for their lives.
The 30th Mechanised Brigade, named after Prince Konstanty Ostrogski, a formation of the Ukrainian Ground Forces, said they decided to remind Russian invaders “who is boss on Ukrainian soil”.
The Ukrainian brigade said on 4th May: “Good evening, we are from Ukraine! In the morning, the racists did not understand the language of ‘signs from above’ from our military so we decided to remind them again who is boss on Ukrainian soil.”
In the footage, Russian soldiers are seen entering a village building that is then blitzed by Ukrainian shells.
Columns of smoke fill the air as more bombs rain down on the complex, apparently destroying an armoured vehicle.
Russian soldiers are seen running from the bombed site along a dirt track.
Moscow invaded Ukraine on 24th February in what the Kremlin called a “special military operation”. Today marks the 71st day of the campaign.
From 24th February to 4th May, the total combat losses of Russian troops stand at around 24,500 personnel, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The Ukrainian military also claims that Russia has lost 1,077 battle tanks, 2,610 combat armoured vehicles, 491 artillery systems, 163 MLR systems, 81 anti-aircraft systems, 194 warplanes, 155 helicopters, 1,867 vehicles, 10 vessels, 76 fuel tank trucks, 303 operational-tactical level UAVs, 38 units of special equipment, and 87 cruise missiles have been shot down.
