Footage released by RT shows a Russian Soldier maneuvering a Kornet anti-tank guided missile system into position and engaging with a position allegedly occupied by Ukrainian forces.

There is no way for us to independently verify that the position they engaged was in fact occupied by Ukrainian forces. It's just as likely that they needed that specific building out of the way to clear sight lines. It's also worth noting that the source of the footage is RT, which is an entirely state-sponsored news organization from Russia.
