Vojna pod zemljo: spopadi v sovjetskih tunelih
Ukrainian forces are increasingly using underground paths in the fight against Russian forces. These tunnels once transported Russian land gas to Europe. Soldiers use pipelines near Kupjansk to move ammunition and supply positions. They also engage in combat with Russian soldiers within these tunnels. Under operation Veles, they have advanced 15 kilometers through narrow pipes. These paths provide a rare sanctuary from drones.
Ukrajinska vojska se v boju proti ruskim silam vse bolj zanaša na podzemne poti, ki so nekoč služile za transport ruskega zemeljskega plina v Evropo. V nekdanjih plinovodih v okolici Kupjanska vojaki prevažajo strelivo, oskrbujejo položaje in se spopadajo z ruskimi vojaki. V okviru operacije Veles naj bi napredovali 15 kilometrov po ozkih ceveh, ki so postale eno redkih zatočišč pred vseprisotnimi droni.
