Seven Ukrainian defenders captured 22 Russians from the special unit of the Russian Navy "Storm" spetsnaz unit
2023-05-23
[Reddit] Video. Near Avdiivka. Narrated by Madyar - the Jagga-Jagga man. The Russians have been forming new "Storm Z" units to have better success on the offense. It didn't get off to a good start.

A Ukrainian site writes:

Ukrainian soldiers defeated a Russian assault unit near Avdiivka that attacked our positions, burned military equipment, and killed most of the Russian soldiers. During the battle, 7 Ukrainian soldiers immediately captured 22 Russian servicemen from the special assault squad. Source: https://censor.net/ua/v3420033

#1  Russia cuts training of contracted convicts to just 10 days amid mounting death toll

Many of these convicts are headed for the Storm Z units. Seems the Russians have picked us the US Dept of Education definition of Special.
