Duel between Russian and Ukrainian tanks filmed in Donbas

18

For the possession of the Donbass, a multi-day battle unfolded between the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, as well as the NM of the DPR and LPR on the one hand and the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the other, in which a huge number of troops were involved. Periodically, details of what is happening on the front line become known.

For example, a video appeared on the Web showing a duel between Russian and Ukrainian tanks. Footage of a fierce battle was filmed by a Russian drone in the Izyum direction.



Events unfolded as follows. A unit of the Armed Forces of Ukraine took up defense in the hangars and the surrounding area, including the forest belt. But in the end they were defeated.

The video shows a tank duel, where the T-64BV of the Armed Forces of Ukraine tried to hit a Russian tank, but misses. He has to change position, after which a hit is recorded on the engine compartment of the combat vehicle. Two members of the Ukrainian crew leave the tank, the third is probably killed. One of the hangars is on fire, and the position of the Ukrainian mortar crew is covered by Russian artillery fire. The remaining Ukrainian soldiers had to retreat.


This is just one of the episodes of what is happening along the entire giant arc from Kharkov to Zaporozhye. The Russian Armed Forces are looking for weaknesses in the enemy’s defense and want to surround the most combat-ready units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that have dug in in Donbass, turning the region into a kind of fortress, which is problematic to storm head-on. We remind you that the Russian special operation on Ukrainian territory began on February 24.

    We are constantly shown single episodes. One Iskander strikes, one Hurricane fires a volley, four guns fire in the field, and so on. The only time they showed a massive helicopter raid on Gostomel airport. It is clear to cooks and taxi drivers that only the massive use of any type of weapon brings the seizure of objects and territory. Did the fascists of the Second World War really have weaker defenses? Or just WWII generals used hundreds of guns on 1 km of the front. The mass and million tons of shells crushed any enemy defense. And the Iskanders were not needed! Well, they knocked out one tank, destroyed the mortar crew, and we know that there is almost no progress in the Izyum direction today !!!

      the size of the grouping does not allow extensive and powerful offensive operations. I think they expect to do without mobilization for the time being. fighters after Mariupol will pull themselves up after a short rest.

        Why start a war if it's scary to think about mobilization?

          No one started the war from here. This is a war from there, and a military operation from us.
          And mobilization here is a fundamental factor: if there is mobilization, there is war; if there is no mobilization, there is no war.
          So BM Shaposhnikov came up with.

      And if you think about it, what is it for? Try it, only without examples of the past, but in the current realities, the past obscures your eyes ...

      The command is well aware that it will have to fight not only with Europe, but also with former allies. You can not get involved, "like chickens, in cabbage soup." Limited special operation forces, act as a decoy. And it is not a fact that the main operation will be carried out in Ukraine, as everyone assumes. A financial transaction is no less important than a combat one. The collapse of the economies of the aggressor countries will lead to a much greater result, and perhaps it will be possible to do without a nuclear Apocalypse.

        The collapse of the economies of the aggressor countries!!! Loudly said. Of course they will suffer, but Russia will suffer many times over. The solution is only military and I think only through a nuclear strike on Ukraine.

          Somewhere, for the purpose of a special operation, the destruction of the Ukrainian people is prescribed, indiscriminately? There is no leniency towards the Ukronazis, but not total extermination. If it presses down, then in NATO countries, a nuclear club can pass. Better, only for the impudent Saks, because they are on the islands, away from the civilized world.

          Great advice! You need to go to the Ministry of Defense. Throw a nuclear missile at a neighboring state - and all is short-lived. Delov, what's there ...

      Do you want scorched earth there? Our troops are trying to preserve infrastructure, housing stock and people.

        Are you sure about this? Not always what they say can be the very thing they think.

          I am confident in the Russian soldier, but you don’t understand who at all.

        Actually, we want to. And what, is it better to lose because of co-operation?

        If they really wanted to save the Russian people, they would not attack Ukraine, but destroyed, for example, rocket launchers in Poland and Romania. And they would also drive the Americans out of Syria. There were many options to show the strength of the heroic and not to kill the Russians.

      Yes, it's good that the State Defense Committee during the Great Patriotic War did not suffer from false humanism. Otherwise, the German would have remained in the same Ukraine.

      Yes, the Great Strategist Marshal of Victory would have been alive, he would have put a hundred thousand people and a couple of tank divisions in the Izyum direction, he would have taken some Nizhnyaya Kotyakhovka for seven days, then everyone would have been delighted: "Oh, great!"
