This is the final part of the documentary trilogy “Offensive”.

The first-person combat footage shows the offensive actions of units of the Third Separate Assault Brigade during the summer-autumn phase of the advance of Ukrainian troops in the Bakhmut direction.

Andriivka was the final point of the brigade’s offensive in Donetsk region.

After clearing the banks of the Siverskyi Donets-Donbas canal from enemy forces and entrenching in captured positions, the fighters of the brigade are starting a new stage and storming the approaches to the occupied village of Andriivka. Stormers advance from one trench to another. Grazing small arms fire and grenades going in one after another, including thermobaric ones.

The occupiers are offered to surrender, but there is no time for long persuasions here, and the russians’ choice is limited – either prisoner or liquidated. “I’ll smoke you out now!”, – one of the fighters comments and continues “pouring” fire.

Thus, through the forest strips, filled with the burrows of the occupiers and fierce battles, the stormers are approaching the settlement and begin the liberation operation.

The total defeat of the enemy’s 72nd omsbr of the russian federation by the forces of the Third Assault Brigade, constant dynamics on the battlefield, the sounds of explosions, shootings and moments when you say goodbye to life, your brothers-in-arms and family. All for the sake of the victorious raising of the Ukrainian flag and the brigade banner over the liberated land.

About the high price of the de-occupied territories, and what the fighters are living through at this time – in the documentary film.
