A Russian tank assault is beaten back by drone operators from Ukraine’s 25th Airborne Brigade. Two tanks with ramshackle cope cages barge through a desiccated hedgerow, piecemeal and without support in true Russian fashion. A lone figure can be seen in the trees to the right, a destroyed vehicle to the right, and a few mortar or artillery rounds land nearby as they advance. The tanks continue, one with a tree trunk across its top, barreling Leroy Jenkins-style across an open field. An FPV drone strikes the lead vehicle in the rear, which catches fire, rolls to a stop. The second tank attempts to return from whence it came and is also struck from behind, causing it to billow smoke and roll to a stop. Another drone strike is shown, bringing down the curtain on this little attack.
