Ukrainian Special Forces Take on Russia in Counteroffensive.
TL;DR
Ukrainian special operators, trained by US Green Berets, have been using their skills to shape the battlefield and undermine Russian forces in the ongoing conflict. They will play a key role in Ukraine's upcoming counteroffensive, which aims to break through Russian lines. US trainers have been working remotely with Ukrainian commandos since their withdrawal from Ukraine last year. Ukrainian special operators have adapted their training to deal with conventional threats like tanks and have added their own "local" flavor to their tactics.
