๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง A battle took place a few hours ago: the russians were advancing with armored vehicles but encountered our tank, which wished the occupiers a "good" night. The survivors have replenished the exchange fund>

The positions from which they launched their offensive were counterattacked by assault groups of the 225th Separate Assault Battalion and are now under our control. We continue our work; stay tuned for updates.

Fog of war, misidentification and disorientation.

Yeah I'm guessing this because it's a T-72B yeah? They must have missed the Ukrainian colors lmao.

The driver saw "a tank" at best. If the gunner/commander were even looking in the right direction, nothing tells us their lens wasn't dirty, the optics broken or everything was shaking too violently for a proper look. It's easy to overestimate how much you can really see out of your steel coffin, especially when it's 40 year old soviet steel coffins.
