Drone footage follows a Ukrainian tank as it assault toward a heavily-defended Russian-held village while delivering its own main gun fire.

As the tank approaches the flanks of the village it comes under heavy fire. Multiple high explosive impacts erupt around the Ukrainian armor, so the tank does a button hook to rapidly exfil the area. Meanwhile, multiple explosions can be seen inside the village, likely a result of Ukrainian artillery and support fire from partner vehicles.

The footage was geolocated to Urozhaine, a settlement that has now been retaken by the Ukrainian Armed Forces during this battle.
