Russian Armor Assault Ends In Horrific Failure
Published 11 months ago
Russian forces continue to sustain horrific losses in the vicinity of Synkivka, in eastern Kharkiv by means of poorly-planned, wholly uncoordinated armored assaults that end in disaster.
A motorcade of Russian combat vehicles can be seen entering an open killing field, already littered with burnt out vehicles hulls from previous failed assaults. They immediately come under heavy fire.
The lead vehicle suddenly sustains a crippling blast, likely an anti tank mine. The following vehicles attempt to turn around, but the rear vehicle is then blown up. Seeing the vulnerability of the vehicles, the onboard Russian infantrymen quickly dismount into the woodline where there are trenches but no overhead cover. That's when artillery cluster munitions begin ravaging the forested area.
The remaining Russian vehicles then get knocked out before they can exfiltrate from the area. A fifth counter assault vehicle then speeds into frame as if coming to the rescue but it blown up as soon as it reaches the front line trace of the destroyed lead vehicle. More troops dismount into the woods as artillery continues to fall.
