SSO liquidated a platoon of North Koreans in Kurshchyna
Soldiers of the 6th Ranger Regiment of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine conducted special operations against regular North Korean troops in the Kursk region of Russia. During a quick contact, SSO operators killed 25 North Koreans.
As noted, this happened last month, but due to operational security, it has only now become possible to talk about it and show video from a drone and body cameras of SSO soldiers.
According to the SSO, 8 rangers in an armored Humvee advanced into the enemy's rear, with the support of reconnaissance drones, reached a direct engagement range, and took up advantageous firing positions in the trenches.
The SSO operators began close combat against an enemy platoon of 25 men—three times their own—and maintained the initiative until its conclusion.
Despite the numerical superiority of the enemy and enemy artillery fire, the SSO soldiers proved the superiority of quality over quantity and left no chance for the entire platoon of the DPRK during contact. The group of rangers withdrew after successfully completing the task.
