Episode Details

Russian troops are crawling through abandoned Soviet-era pipelines to sneak behind Ukrainian lines, risking deadly exposure as Ukrainian forces wait to ambush them—often killing or capturing them within minutes. The underground tunnels, narrow and suffocating, have claimed dozens of lives, yet Russia keeps sending waves of soldiers in pursuit of retaking Kupiansk. Ukraine’s defenses are tightening, sealing off sections and predicting Russian moves, turning the tactic into a brutal, high-cost game of cat-and-mouse that’s effective locally but not decisive on the broader front.
