Fighters from the Freedom of Russia Legion, a unit of the Ukrainian Defense Ministry's Main Intelligence Directorate (HUR), carried out a successful ambush against militants from the Russian National Guard's Akhmat unit near the village of Velyka Bilozerka in the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia region.

According to Ukrinform, the intelligence agency reported the operation on Facebook and released video footage of the mission.

"On July 17, the Legion's soldiers covertly advanced more than 30 kilometers deep into the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia region, eliminated the target, and returned from the mission without casualties," the statement said.

As a result of an explosive attack on a vehicle, three fighters from the Akhmat unit were killed. During the operation, intelligence was also gathered regarding the enemy's logistics, equipment, and command posts.
