Russian tank column blown up by lethally accurate Ukrainian artillery near Bakhmut



Footage has emerged of a Russian column of tanks being blown up by Ukrainian artillery south of the besieged city of Bakhmut.

It is unclear exactly where the vehicles were heading, but pro-Russian bloggers reported that forces had launched an unsuccessful counterattack on Klishchiivka.

Ukrainian forces held their positions on the heights near the village after an assault took place, according to the Telegram channel WarGonzo.

Kyiv is determined to keep hold of the settlement as it cuts off a key supply route to the Russian forces occupying the city.

The footage, apparently taken from a drone, shows six tanks moving in a line along a field parallel to an unnamed settlement before being engulfed in an artillery strike.

Hanna Maliar, a Ukrainian defence minister, said on Monday that troops had recaptured around three square kilometres (1.2 square miles) near Bakhmut in the last week.

Kyiv reported yesterday that Moscow had made unsuccessful offensives near Klishchiivka (4.3 miles southwest of Bakhmut) and Kurdyumivka (8 miles southwest of Bakhmut).

  1. There is no element of surprise anymore. Drones have changed everything on the battle field, gathering intel, coordinates. NEVER fight a war unless its on your homeland or neighbours, its just not worth it and its only going to get worse.

  2. Deze oorlog leidt tot END OF TIMES. Ik word al circa 10 jaar regelmatig gewaarschuwd. Tegenwoordig krijg ik dagelijks signalen binnen. De wereldeconomie is er o. a. de oorzaak van. Te weten door stimuleren van de oorlogsindustrie en als je aan industrie denkt én alles moet om winst draaien én mens en milieu er voor opofferen, dan is er maar één richting waar je naar kan wijzen. O ja, die signalen die ik ontvang, komen niet van mensen. Het signaal is te herkennen aan 2 cijfers: de 2 en de 3. En samen vormen ze 't getal 23 wat symbolisch voor het "laatste uur" staat. Die 23 is een waarschuwing. Mogelijk krijgen jullie die ook. Maar er zijn meer signalen. Onopvallend. Dus let op.

  3. Funny how they keep taking videos Russia posted on telegram trying to pretend Ukraine is putting up a good fight. A fight that should never have taken place. Thanks to Washington and NATO for the needless murdering of so many Ukrainians.

  4. All putin has to do is recall whats left of his pathetic troops…it would be over in a day. And then some good
    Russian can throw him out a ten story window. He is culpable for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of
    young Russian men let alone the thousands of Ukraine citizens, not soldiers, he has had murdered. He and
    any oligarch who supports him need to be six feet under.

  6. The pond is in Klishchiivka village. The vehicles appear to be moving southwest just outside Klishchiivka, but it's not clear where they're headed. They would be behind a treeline and possibly not be directly visible from the village.
