Helmet cam footage shows Azov soldiers of the 3rd Assault Brigade attempting to evacuate a wounded comrade under hostile fire.

The video demonstrates the horrible fighting conditions as the terrain is flat and open. The only thing resembling cover is what is left of destroyed wood line. Artillery falls as the team carries the injured man to a bunker further to the rear. Based on the units involved, the footage was likely recorded along the Bakhmut front in Donetsk.
