Russia 0, Door 1: Soldier’s shocking defeat blows up online

As the Russian invasion of Ukraine wages on, a battle between a Russian soldier and a door has resulted in a crushing defeat.

A clip of the incident from Yeshiva World News reported Moshe Schwartz has gone viral online, with the interaction dubbed the Battle of Techno House.

The soldier, reportedly in Kherson, Ukraine, is seen attempting to gain access into a store.

When his first attempts fail, the soldier smashes the glass on the door but that also fails.

Seemingly exasperated, the soldier tugs on the door handle before accepting defeat and walking away.

A Wikipedia page was allegedly created documenting the incident. Image: Twitter

The page said the incident ended with a “decisive” victory for the door, and that casualties and losses included “ammunition, pride and a window”.

One video of the incident was viewed more than a million times in one hour and attracted thousands of comments joking about an otherwise grim situation.

It comes as Russian forces have captured the strategically significant hub of Kherson, the first to be captured since the invasion began last week.
