It the same footage of the same 2 assaults that they've been milking out for over a week now.I think this is the 20th time I've seen the Russian shills post the same photo of knocked-out Bradleys, while claiming it's a new massacre of Urkainians.
The crews escaped, which is the important thing. And the vehicles, knocked out by mines, will be recovered and repaired.
Probably means they have nothing more to show.
The loss of the engineering vehicles is the worst of it. At least 2 of the Leo's were recovered and re-tracked. Most of the dismounts walked away with ringing ears but otherwise unharmed.
There are a lot of mines, and a lot of disabled vehicles. But the crews walk away, and they recover the vehicle later. One AFU soldier said they lost the "information war" on this one, but they have a lot of footage that they aren't releasing- Leo's taking multiple hits without harm, and M2's destroying Russian tanks.
There will be more losses- a lot more, if you're realistic. That's war. The AFU still hasn't committed the bulk of the new bde's. There are 12 of them, about 45-50K strong and 3,000 armored vehicles.
We'll know when they commit their main forces, it will be unmistakable.
Russian milbloggers are unhappy, and Putin met with a bunch of them recently to get their stories straight. (Peg-leg Pegov looks more like Rasputin every time I see him, lol)
