Details: The SOF said that Russian troops had been trying to capture the settlement, formerly known by its Soviet name of Iskra, on the Oleksandrivka front for a long time using small groups: they gradually infiltrated the village and took up positions.

Soldiers from the 3rd Regiment of the Special Operations Forces, working with one of the SOF psychological operations centres, carried out a comprehensive operation to liberate the settlement.

The video posted by the SOF shows the ground phase of the operation: the advance of special forces, the displacement of Russian troops from their positions, and the re-establishment of Ukrainian control over the territory. The timeframe of the special operation was not disclosed.

Quote: "Thirty Russian servicemen were forced to surrender. Those who continued to resist were wiped out. Andriivka-Klevtsove is once again under Ukrainian control."
