Part 3/8:
The Ukrainian command judiciously deployed the Shaman Special Forces Battalion of their Military Intelligence service to undertake this operation. Known for its successful history of covert engagements, Shaman is one of the most elite units within the Ukrainian military framework. They were chosen for this mission due to their expertise and given an operational format that allowed them to exercise discretion, capitalizing on their knowledge of the compound's layout — a critical advantage that they had from having constructed it.
