Hill 3234 – The Soviet-Afghan War (2020x25)

Air date: Jun 18, 2020

It happened during the last stage of the Soviet-Afghan War. Already withdrawing its forces, Soviet High Command needed to display its might one last time by recapturing the vital Satukandav Pass. But to achieve that goal, the commanding heights surrounding the pass had to be held against continuous Mujahideen attacks. In the Battle for Hill 3234, an outnumbered force of Soviet paratroopers held their own against relentless attacks from the Afghan rebels.
