Footage released by members of the DPR allegedly shows one of their tanks scoring a direct hit against a Ukrainian fighting position. The compression and watermarking makes it hard to tell if it's true.

For those of you who believe we are Ukrainian propagandists, I'd like to inform you that we're doing our absolute best to give you an accurate representation of what the Separatist and Russian forces are doing in Ukraine. That said, not a single group from the Russian perspective can deliver consistent footage that hasn't somehow been ruined or tampered with. As a result, we are left to release footage like this with nothing more than the claims the forces posting the video are saying.

This video was recorded in Southeastern Ukraine, and it allegedly shows a tank from the DPR scoring a direct hit against Ukrainian positions. At around :17 seconds into the video, you can see a single individual briefly on screen for a few frames. Unfortunately, the compression on the video makes it difficult to make out what's actually happening. For all we know, this could could be a tank simply shooting at dirt, or it could be exactly as they say.

Regardless, we are posting the footage to continue doing our best in showing both sides of the conflict in Ukraine.
