Khartiia said drone surveillance is forcing Ukrainian forces to move and operate underground as it withholds most details about the mission.

  • Ukraine's 2nd Khartiia Corps of the National Guard released the first footage from Operation VELES on October 21, a joint underground mission conducted with the Ukrainian Defense Forces.
  • Constant aerial surveillance has made open surface movement increasingly dangerous, forcing troops to adapt concealment and maneuver tactics by shifting operations underground.
  • Brigadier General Ihor Obolienskyi, commander of the Khartiia Corps, praised the personnel involved, stating, "We have extraordinary people; we are an invincible nation."
  • Khartiia has withheld details regarding Operation VELES's objectives, location, and progress, though the corps promised to share more information soon.
  • Earlier combat success includes Operation Vivaldi, which resulted in 277 square kilometers of territory retaken and at least 8,000 Russian troops killed or wounded.
