"We Were Destroyed" - Russian Mercenary Recounts the Deadly Battle of Khasham | Official Preview

Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkoujZQZatbqy4KGcgjpVxQ/join In this gripping episode, former Wagner commander Marat Gabidullin reveals his journey from serving time for manslaughter to rising through the ranks of Russia’s infamous mercenary group. He exposes the inner workings of Wagner, its ties to Putin, and the greed-driven ambitions of Yevgeny Prigozhin that led to its global expansion and ultimate downfall. Gabidullin recounts brutal missions across Syria—including the infamous Battle of Khasham where Wagner forces clashed with U.S. troops—culminating in his haunting words: “We were destroyed.” This rare insider account pulls back the curtain on Russia’s covert war machine and the high-stakes world of private military power.

Full spectrum expertly curated content. Few if anyone is doing the quality of reporting/exploring of critical concerns content like you. And I mean your whole amazing team. Thanks Shawn 🙏

Eric Covington

Really great graphic design and editing from your team.

Matt Jones

What a great idea. The unfiltered truth. No wonder your kicking ass Shawn. Stay safe, stay vigilant.

Tom S

Ah I thought this was the early access video when I got an email 😁 we are on tenterhooks!

Jerad White

Damn! This is going to be another amazing interview. I need the video now! Ha!

Maxime

I did not see this comming. I thought you were going to interview Marine LePen. Marat seems to be an interesting guy, he was often on french tv during the Wagner antics. Now it would be interesting to interview Brent Tucker who was on the other side PS the video editing guy deserves every penny he gets

Billy

This is out of the box journalism. With so much garbage on the internet it’s refreshing to find content worth watching.

Judd Osborne

Groundbreaking type of interview

CavTactical

Oh shit this is ginna be good

Jerry Parker

Looking forward to this interview

Thomas Marchese

This is gunna be full of information that the west has never heard. Or actually listened to. We need to get this EVERYWHERE when it drops. Russia v Ukraine. And Israel v Palestine for that matter. Are so much more politically tangled and corrupt than were lead to believe. There is so much evil corrupt bs on both sides and innocent people stuck in the middle.

SAMH

This looks like an amazing interview.

Kevin O’Malley

The music is really driving up the intensity and drama of an already exciting interview.

Keith bright

Shawn is a savage, keep it real Bro. you are one of the very few that I trust.

Shana Hatch

This looks like another amazing eye opening interview!

Eric Alger

This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from someone who lived inside the Wagner Group, rose through its ranks, and then had the courage to break away and speak out. Most people have no idea about the complexity of his story — from serving in the Soviet Airborne Forces, to becoming a senior strategist within Wagner, to finally exposing the brutal realities behind the organization. His firsthand perspective could shed light not only on Wagner’s operations, but also on the larger patterns of modern warfare that the world rarely gets to see unfiltered.

James Reece

🫨 I’ve been wondering what you been up too, this is gonna be a jaw dropper 🤯🤙🏻💯🇺🇸

Tim

This will be good.

WJ

This has the potential to be huge. Great job to Shawn and the team! Going to be great insight into what we may have otherwise never known.

Curtis

Looking forward to this one 👍🇺🇸🙏

Eric Keeler

Thank you for doing this! So much more to come from this!

Jimmy Wusinich

This should be a good one. Great idea. Patrick Lancaster on Tucker and now this? 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Kevin O’Malley

Sitting here reflecting on the life we enjoy vs these guys whose choices were to rot in a Russian prison or be turned into meat fodder thrown against US special forces. We are blessed. Let’s not waste it!

SergeyM

Vagner leaves forever…. V

Bran Stew

Clif
