Footage reportedly shows a Russian T-64 tank driving out of control into a forest after taking a direct hit from an FGM-148 Javelin missile. The burning vehicle is finally stopped by some trees, but the tracks continue to spin. The incident reportedly occurred in the vicinity of Avdiivka, in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region. The Ukrainian unit responsible for knocking out the Russian vehicle was reportedly the 36th Marine Brigade.
