Ukrainian SOF capture 30 Russian troops during liberation of Andriivka-Klevtsove in Donetsk region
Thirty Russian servicemen surrendered during a clearance operation to liberate the village of Andriivka-Klevtsove in the Volnovakha district of Donetsk region, near the administrative border with Dnipropetrovsk region, the Special Operations Forces (SOF) of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said Monday.
Ukrainian Special Operations Forces (SOF) successfully captured 30 Russian soldiers during a clearance operation to retake the village of Andriivka-Klevtsove, located in the Volnovakha district of the Donetsk region. The SOF, in coordination with a psychological operations center, conducted a thorough mission to liberate the settlement.
Upon surrendering, the Russian servicemen were forced to lay down their arms, while those who persisted faced no mercy. The liberation of Andriivka-Klevtsove brings the village back under Ukrainian control, according to the SOF's Telegram channel. Russian forces had been attempting to seize control of the village for an extended period, employing small assault units.
However, the village is now firmly in Ukrainian hands once more. Although maps from the DeepState OSINT project did not initially show the village under Russian control, its eastern outskirts were previously within a penetration area, or "gray zone." Earlier last week, the DeepState confirmed that Ukrainian Defense Forces had pushed back Russian forces following counteroffensive operations. As a result, the "gray zone" now extends 10 kilometers away from the village.
