Helmet cam combat footage shows a patrol of Ukrainian Azov troops of the 3rd Assault Brigade coming under attack by Russian cluster munitions during clearing operations near Bakhmut in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region.

The munitions can be heard bursting all around them when all of a sudden, one of the bomblets erupts just in front of them, throwing dirt and debris in their faces. It's unclear if the soldiers were seriously injured in the blast.
