Brutal footage shows a Russian tank and an IFV covered in infantry traveling through a mined area. The IFV manages to detonate an anti tank mine that the tank missed, and one of the Russian soldiers sitting atop the IFV is sent spiraling through the air. Other Russian troops can be seen dismounting and running into the nearby wood line.

Just before the video ends, the tank can be seen backing up to retrieve the IFV crew and it hits a mine as well. The video ends before an accurate assessment can be made on casualties and equipment losses.
