Body-worn camera footage recorded by a Ukrainian soldier in the vicinity of Vovchansk, Kharkiv reportedly shows the result of a close quarters engagement in which a Russian soldier made the mistake of stepping out in front of the rifleman at only a few steps distance.

The Ukrainian fires several rounds into the Russian soldier ensuring he is no longer a threat and eliminating his ability to call out to nearby Russian troops. The Ukrainian is reportedly a member of a Special Police Forces unit called the Safari Assault Regiment.
