Dramatic drone footage captured a lone Ukrainian tank ambushing an entire column of Russian armored vehicles on the outskirts of Kyiv — destroying several of them and forcing others to retreat.
The vintage T-64 main battle tank is seen taking cover behind a building and firing at the enemy targets on a road in Nova Basan, less than 50 miles west of the capital city, the Independent reported.
As the Russian BTR-82 armored personnel carriers rumble by, the Ukrainian tank unleashes a barrage, the drone footage posted on the social media platform Telegram shows.
The first shot misses, but the next one strikes a vehicle, which explodes in a fireball.
The Russian forces appear to be caught by surprise by the attack and they respond by randomly firing in the general direction of the obscured tank, the video shows. --->LOTS MORE HERE
The US should send Ukraine all the weapons it asks for as Russia’s invasion reaches a pivotal moment that could change the outcome of the war, some policy analysts and lawmakers said Friday.
Ukrainians have mounted a fiercer resistance to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invading forces than expected — and the West could sway the war decisively in Ukraine’s favor by supplying its fighters with heavy-duty weapons now, according to experts.
But to help Ukraine to prevail, the US must take the lead over its NATO allies, due to its global stature and massive military resources, said Dalibor Rohac, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute in Washington, DC.
“In the short term, if you want Ukrainians to win this war there is nobody like the United States that could make that happen,” Rohac told The Post.
“My main message is just do more,” Rohac said. “Send Ukrainians everything that they ask for, don’t be afraid of Putin, and he can actually lose this war.”
NATO pledged to send more weapons to aid in the conflict Thursday, amid growing reports of Russian brutality and atrocities against civilians in Ukraine. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to +++++relevant+++++ and related stories:
