Russian Soldier Watches IFV Get Deleted

This footage, purportedly coming from a Russian source, shows a Russian soldier getting a first person, front-row seat to watch as a nearby infantry fighting vehicle is seemingly wiped off the face of the Earth. The specific location is unknown, as is the means of destruction, but the explosion is massive.


Since the outbreak of hostilities, a reoccurring trope in this conflict has been Russian armor and vehicular assets exploding in spectacular fashion. While we normally see this from on high via drone camera, seeing it from first person, on the ground, up close causes it to hit different- in this case, literally. The Russian soldier ducks for cover as debris from the IFV rains around him.
