Showdown at the coal mine in Pishchane by the “Skalá” Regiment… with original commentary by the illustrious protagonists.
April 2025. The 425th Separate Assault Regiment “Skalá (The Cliff)” is holding off the enemy in the direction of Pokrovsk. The Russians are trying to infiltrate the coal mine in the village of Pishchane. To thwart their plans, “Skalá’s” assault team stormed into the highly contested mine site and took a foothold in the main hangar. The Russians, failing to dig them out with drones, sent infantry in. A slug fest ensues. The “Skalá” rangers, entrenched deep inside the structure against constant FPV attacks, have limited visibility and must be guided by an observer drone keeping watch outside.
The 425th Separate Assault Regiment “Skalá” is a Ukrainian special operations volunteer unit. It has participated in the 2022 Kharkiv counteroffensive, the defense of Bakhmut, and the Ukrainian push south into Robotyne in summer 2023. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skala_Battalion
