RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Russia- 05 December 2022. Army aviation fire cover teams from Western MD fire control teams from the Western Military District continue missions in the special military operation area. STORYLINE: Army Aviation crews of the Western Military District continue missions in the special military operation to destroy armoured vehicles and military infrastructure facilities of the AFU, escort military convoys, deliver troops and military cargo, and provide air support to units. All sorties take place at extremely low altitude. Riflemen of the army aviarion cover teams are tasked with escorting military convoys and humanitarian supplies along public roads. They observe objects and vehicles on the ground from the air and identify enemy firing points while patrolling the area. The crews often risk their lives to help evacuate civilians from liberated settlements from the front line of defence, cover them when approaching and boarding helicopters, and carry out firing in case of abnormal situations during the evacuation of personnel from the ground. The groups change several times a day to perform their tasks in the air without interruption. Footage by APAwire
