Russia Accidentally Shows Off Its Own Destroyed Tank
Russia’s Ministry of Defense published a video on Tuesday attempting to pass off its own destroyed tank as Ukrainian.
“Anti-tank units destroyed a column of armored vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the area of the Vremevsky ledge,” the ministry wrote in a post on Telegram.
It shared a clip of a burnt out tank, which turned out to be Russian T-80BV, said Serhiy Bratchuk, a spokesperson for the Odessa military administration, Gazeta.ua reported.
The footage was published one week into Ukraine’s push to recapture its Russian-occupied territories.
Russian President Vladimir Putin, in a rare concession of the Kremlin’s military losses, told Russian military bloggers on Tuesday that Russia had lost 54 tanks in the course of Kyiv’s counteroffensive efforts thus far.
