I think the tanks with those peculiar tiles hanging off them are Russian. Like some cheap retro-fit.

Those look like what is left of a T-72 (they have been hammered badly and the pics aren’t very detailed) with reactive armour retrofits. The Georgian Army does field T-55 and T-72s. Based on that, I think that they are T-72s (the shape of the hull and turret are consistent with a T-72).
