“there is no proof as yet as to what actually blew them up.”

The Ukrainians have their internal reporting, but the credibility of what they might report externally is naturally in doubt during war.

The indications that I have heard is that there has been quite a mix of causes for Russian tank losses - Yes, guided missiles like Javelin and NLAWs, as well as other direct fire Infantry weapons like RPGs; but also artillery, drone attacks, aviation, mines, tank on tank engagements, and a large number just abandoned or broken down/out of fuel.

“Never assume you’re safe in a war zone.

This #Russian soldier assumed he was.

He wasn’t.”
