[VK] "When we entered hand-to-hand combat, we both knew that one of us was bound to die."

RT spoke with the same Yakut stormtrooper who eliminated the Ukrainian Armed Forces soldier in hand to hand combat.

After a knife fight, an attack aircraft from Yakutia eliminated four more Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers.

An enemy group of six soldiers approached him, and after a firefight only two of them left alive. This was reported to RT by Andrei Grigoryev, a soldier from the 39th Separate Motorized Rifle Brigade.

Later, Andrei was able to contact his command.

“Come on, hold on, bro, there’s still... find out where their headquarters are, where the warehouse is, where the gas station is,” the Russian soldier recalls the words from headquarters.
Apparently, Andrei's commanders were expecting miracles. They got the one Andrei wanted.

Said commenter Vladimir Bandakov:
Yes, amazing. Two went, one was killed, the second, all cut up and wounded, fought off six, barely alive, contacted the commander. "Oh, alive? Counterattack? Superior enemy forces? Are you the only one left? Okay, then find out where the headquarters and warehouse are. Well, and take a couple of neighboring villages, okay? Will you make it before evening?”

Recall that the day before, archival footage from a Ukrainian soldier's camera, which captured a fight with a Yakut attack aircraft, was distributed online. They were filmed in the fall of 2024 during an attempt by the Ukrainian Armed Forces to counterattack the village of Trudovoye in the DPR.

"And he said, 'Goodbye.' I said, 'Goodbye, brother.'"

A Yakut stormtrooper told RT how the life of a military serviceman he defeated in a knife fight ended.

According to Andrey Grigoriev, he put a grenade under the Ukrainian soldier's bulletproof vest. He did this so that he wouldn't suffer. And after the explosion, he fired a control shot.

"I let him go, then he lay there and said goodbye to the sky. And he muttered something: 'You are the best fighter in the world,'" Andrey recalls.

A commenter, Yury Yury on V Kontakte said this about the Ukrainian soldier's goodbye to the sky:
Tengriism is the main religion in Yakutia. The supreme deity was considered to be Tengri - the deified sky. The fighter went overboard about saying goodbye to the sky, of course, or he understood the Ukrainian's prayer in his own way.
