It has now been 28 days since Russia started the war in Ukraine. In the suburbs of kyiv, Chechen fighters were seen alongside Ukrainians. A war scene was also filmed by one of them.
In the midst of combat, 20 km from kyiv, a tense face-to-face is taking place between the Russians and the Chechen fighters, allies of Ukraine since 2014. It is one of his allies who films the scene using his smartphone. They strafe their opponents along a railroad track. One of them, completely uncovered, takes the time to load his weapon and adjust his target, then he fires.
He immediately returns to his group to reload his weapon while giving new orders to the other soldiers. Suddenly, an explosion sounded. Not far away, black smoke rises. It may be an enemy vehicle that has been hit. Currently, it is difficult to know how many Chechen soldiers are fighting alongside the Ukrainians. But their determination seems total.
