Footage from Ukrainian forces fighting in the vicinity of Stepove, near Avdiivka, shows an M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle absolutely shredding a Russian BMP that was immobilized during a frontal assault.

It's not clear what initially crippled the BMP, possibly the Bradley did, but the footage from the infantry fighting position shows the Ukrainian troops are equipped with AT4 launchers, which are more than potent enough to knock out a Russian IFV.

The second half of the video shows the heavy fighting leading up to the knocked out BMP. The Bradley can be seen out in front of the defenders' positions laying down heavy fire while dodging incoming rounds.
