Frontline Diary of an American Officer

Scott Bennett documents the truth about the raging conflict in Donbass

"Donbass is where the bombs and the bullets are raging. This is where people are dying. This is where the buildings are exploding. So, I wanted to see firsthand the scars of war, the wounds in the street, the rubble of the buildings being collapsed. I wanted to see the soldiers that were fighting and hear from them about why they were fighting, how this fighting started and their opinion," says Scott Bennett, former officer of the US Army. In November 2023, he visited Donbass to make a documentary-diary of his own. What are the impressions of the American officer after daring trips to the frontlines? How does he think about the Russian special forces training? Why is he now convinced of Russia's inevitable victory? To gain personal experience within the Russian Army, Scott Bennett spent several days with the "Nevsky" unit in Soledar.
