More drone video released by Russian sources shows the continued use of an unconventional landmine tactic. Previously, we have seen this technique used by Russian forces with moderate success, but today it seems as if the unit in question has doubled down and started clearing every building in Karlivka by throwing an anti-tank mine through an opening.

The mines are likely armed with a time-based grenade fuse, which doesn't give the Soldier on the ground very much space to get clear of the massive explosion caused by the anti-tank mines. According to the source of the footage, this technique is being dominantly used by members of the Separate Guards Assault Battalion of the Donetsk People's Republic.
