Eastern direction.

For the first time, the Ukrainian military captured an enemy “turtle tank” and captured Russian tankers

✍️ In the Kramatorsk direction in the Klishchiivka area, soldiers of the 22nd separate mechanized brigade captured a Russian “turtle tank” and also captured its crew. It should be emphasized that this is the first known such case.

👉Thanks to the unit of unmanned systems, an enemy tank was detected in the area of the village of Klishchiivka. Drops were carried out by using BpAK on the tank. The stricken tank and the disoriented crew of the enemy, trying to escape, lost any opportunity to find the right direction to return to their positions. Thanks to the artillery of the brigade, the tank was stopped at one of the lines and the infantrymen from the mechanized battalion captured the crew together with the tank. During negotiations with the crew, the driver-mechanic hid inside with a grenade and tried to blow up the tank. But our infantrymen found strong arguments for the conviction that it is better to live than to die.

    I never thought about it before, but the most critical piece of gear was that Ukrainian flag. Without that, the tank, once in motion again, would be targeted by half a dozen kamakazi drones in a matter of minutes.
