This drone footage, provided by Ukraine’s 60th Mechanized Brigade, shows the drone spotting Russian infantry hiding in a woodline along a road near Lyman, Ukraine. A Ukrainian tank is then brought to the fore, whereupon it works over the Russian positions with its main gun. Although a specific date was not given, this footage was dated to have occurred in March, 2024.
The Russians shown here don’t seem to have any anti-tank capabilities, so their only recourse is to hunker down and take it- a bad day, defined. The tank fires eleven times over the course of the video, although some rounds seem to land short, and others long. The clock on the drone’s camera feed suggests that about five minutes pass during this sped-up video, but it was almost certainly longer from the perspective of the Russians in the trees.
