Damn, I almost feel sorry for them. At least it was over quick.

Big boom. Ammo was set off. The commander should not have been in combat with his head and shoulders sticking out of open cupola, but, actually, it didn't matter.

I'm pretty sure it was a mine that got them. As soon as he drove into that "road" it blew.

Rus tanks have a quirky system of storing their ammo in a rack in the turret. They cook off in a spectacular fashion. The M1Abrahms store their ammo in an armored locker separate from the crew.

From the 'everything new is old' file.

The Ukrainians are using Bangalore torpedoes against orc fortifications.

Ignerant tarheads

"...It comes as Ukraine's defense intelligence GUR said that Ukrainian partisans had destroyed a Russian station used to refuel military equipment in the city of Melitopol in Zaporizhzhia oblast Friday. The explosion damaged military equipment and killed several Russian military personnel who were taking a cigarette break.

"The Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine and brave Ukrainian partisans remind us that smoking kills," the GUR said in a statement on its Telegram channel, according to a translation."

I saw a report about Ukranian drones catching Orcs with their pants down when they break cover to take dumps. Other drones loiter over the dumpees and follow them back to their comrades then target them. Smart military training teaches you to do your number two after dark when in combat zones.
