How the Russian Army went to the 'Tsar's Hunt'
2024-02-06
This maneuver was reported here about 10 days ago, how Russian troops used a pipe to get in behind Ukrainian defenses. The maneuver was reminiscent of how the Red Army operated during the Battle of Stalingrad, maneuvering behind German line to pop up unexpectedly.

Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:

[ColonelCassad] The first footage appeared from the territory of the “Tsar's Hunt” during the entry of a detachment of attack aircraft into its territory, which went behind enemy lines through an underground pipe after several months of preparation.



The enemy was not ready for such a maneuver and lost several dozen people killed and captured. Subsequent attempts by the enemy to repel the "Tsar's Hunt" with a counterattack of three battalions were unsuccessful. Now the fighting has shifted to the southwestern regions of Avdievka itself, where our attack aircraft have already advanced into residential areas despite fierce enemy counterattacks.

Tactically flawless operation. The organizers are worthy of the title of Heroes of Russia. The enemy's most important position was taken with little blood.

We are waiting for more detailed videos of the “Tsar’s Hunt” mop up.
