I am embedded with the Russian DPR OBTF "Cascade" / "Kaskad" on the Russian frontline just 60 meters from Ukrainian Positions (Between Zaperozya and Ugladar). We could only travel at night because of the intense danger of being targeted by drones. Through the day and night Ukrainian drones were overhead attempting to target the Russian military equipment and us. In this full length Special Documentary I show you what it is like for a Russian "Kaskad" soldier to go from their base to the very frontline position and all in-between just before the Ukrainian "counter offensive" started (in May). The OBTF "Cascade" includes parts of the forces and means of the law enforcement agencies of the DPR. The key element of the OBTF "Cascade" is the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the DPR. The head of the OBTF "Cascade" is the DPR Minister of Internal Affairs, Colonel-General A. A. Dikiy. It should be mentioned that the DPR government is actively merging with the Russian Government so things change fast
