Video Description (brief abbrev. translation):
In February 2022, in the first hours and days of the full-scale Russian invasion, a combined company-tactical group of paratroopers of the 80th separate assault brigade did everything possible to delay the enemy's advance in the Chernobyl zone. Later, the fighters gave battle to the occupiers on the outskirts of the capital: Gostomel, Bucha and Vorzel. The actions and self-sacrifice of the paratroopers, on a par with other units of the Defense Forces of Ukraine, allowed to gain time and bring up more significant forces to stop the Russians and further liberate the Kyiv region from the enemy.
