Servicemen from the SSU’s Special Operations Centre A captured and cleared a complex, fortified, and well-defended company stronghold with underground communications, living quarters for personnel, a dining hall, an armoury, and even a bathhouse.

The Russians were not planning to surrender, as there were more than enough provisions and ammunition, a source said.

The special forces took 102 servicemen from the 488th Guards Motor Rifle Regiment of the Russian Armed Forces and the Akhmat unit as prisoners.
