Операция «Мухаббат» (Season 1)

«Операция «Мухаббат»» (2018) is a Russian war drama you can watch online on iFILM. The year is 1984, and the Soviet Union is deep into its Afghan campaign. Mitya and Anya are young and in love — and completely unprepared for what history is about to do to them.

Anya's family decides to emigrate to the United States. She goes. Mitya stays, and the only plan he can come up with is to find his way across a war zone back to her. "Mukhabbat" is the Dari word for love — that's what he names his operation. Sergei Puskepalіs leads the cast alongside Sergei Strelnikov, Denis Nikiforov, and Aglaya Tarasova, with Oleg Fomin directing.

A war series that actually earns its love story — the Afghanistan sequences are specific and brutal, not decorative backdrop. Watch «Операция «Мухаббат»» (2018) online on iFILM.
