Near village of Andriivka, the 1st Assault Battalion "Black Swan" of the 225th Regiment reached the enemy command post.

The battalion commander, Major Andrey Yartsev, was inside. He was eliminated during the assault.

  3. Sure hope that he was super important. 👌 Great work 👏

  4. The smarter Russian officers figured out a few months into the war that they needed to stay **way** back from the action and be very careful about being seen in public if they wanted to survive. Junior officers have continued to be slaughtered in large numbers, but majors and more senior ranks have become increasingly rare over the last couple of years.

    I wonder if this was a case of his juniors telling him what he wanted to hear about their heroic defence and the location of the Ukrainians, so when they came knocking on the door, he was astonished for a few moments before he wasn’t thinking anything at all.
