on 24 february 2022, RF VDV troops launched an legendary assault on Kiev airport.
Its defender's where neutralized by the RF assault teams, and the RF troops held out against Ukrainian assaults until RF ground forces reached the airfield.
The reason i call this an Tribute, is because i myself are former Airborne Infantry. (ex-NATO)
I have nothing but deep respect for how this operation was executed and the professionalism of all the involved RF forces.
This will go down in the history books as how you seize an strategic target in the heart of enemy territory.
from the source:
ukrainian infantry fighting vehicles are storming the Russian positions in the first video, but a Russian tank came out to meet them, destroying two of them.
The battle lasted several hours until the evening, by that time another BMP came up from the Russian side, and a tank from the Ukrainian side.
The battle ends with the Russian infantry destroying a Ukrainian retreating tank.
