Wait is that just a modified kv-1?

The article says that it's a stock photo, but I doubt it. Nobody's using WW2 tanks, and this is probably also Ukrainian, based on the caption.

EDIT: Doesn't look like the KV-1 has a side skirt, as the tank in the photo does.

Why I was surprised, if they were the slapping skirts and some cage armor on the turret of some WW2 it would seem super desperate.
