Entire column of Russian tanks destroyed by Ukrainian forces in Donetsk

Ukrainian forces destroyed an entire column of Russian tanks.

The armour was apparently caught napping on a narrow country road in the eastern Ukrainian region of Donetsk Oblast and the footage was posted on Monday morning.

The video shows a row of Russian tanks on a country road being destroyed by the Ukrainian forces.

Battle group K-2 of the 54th Mechanised Brigade of the Ukrainian Ground Forces said in a statement: “Battle group K-2 is back! For a long time, we were very busy with our work and could not please you with the destruction of the Russian.

“Yes, we have gathered enough material and are back on social media! So, we offer you a short film about the ‘stick’, in the literal sense, of love for our brothers.

“Somewhere in the Donetsk region, two occupying tanks were destroyed and several more left on fire.”

The unit added: “Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the Armed Forces!”

Russia invaded their neighbours Ukraine on 24th February in what the Kremlin called a "special military operation" in the sovereign European country. Today marks the 47th day of the invasion.

From 24th February to 11th April, the total combat losses of Russian troops stand at 19,500 personnel, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
