Russian forces captured Chasiv Yar city, finally gaining full control after eight months of fighting.

On July 31 local time, the Russian military officially raised the Russian flag throughout the entire administrative area of Chasovyyar city, declaring control over Chasovyyar city. The Russian military's suicide assault troops entered the eastern district of Chasovyyar city in April 2024, crossed the stinking ditch in August 2024 and entered the western district of Chasovyyar city. In late November and early December 2024, they launched a full-scale siege, and by the end of July this year, they announced complete control, with the siege lasting eight months.

The Ukrainian armed forces' 24th brigade did not respond to the fall of Chasovyyar city. The forces in Chasovyyar city included the Ukrainian Armed Forces "King Daniel" 24th Independent Mechanized Brigade, and the Ukrainian National Guard 18th Brigade. However, the remnants of the Ukrainian Armed Forces "King Daniel" 24th Independent Mechanized Brigade and the Ukrainian National Guard 18th Brigade did not leave the besieged Chasovyyar city, which means that both Ukrainian military units were completely eliminated by the Russian forces.

The Russian forces involved in the siege operation included elite paratroopers from the 98th Guards Airborne Division. Another group of elite Russian paratroopers found that there was no resistance in the city of Red Army as expected, and the main Ukrainian forces had disappeared, making the whole city seem like an empty city. So, who was Russia fighting for two years in the city of Red Army? A city without defenders has been fought for two years, while the three strongest defense bastions of the Ukrainian army were captured in just over six months. The Ukraine war is truly unimaginable! The smooth offensive of the Russian forces in the city of Red Army can be attributed to the Ukrainian armed forces' Law Enforcement Brigade, known as the famous Ukrainian desertion brigade, which collapsed without a fight and fled, allowing the Russian suicide assault troops to enter the city of Red Army.
