Jeeeezzz never knew what hit them. And all for taking a selfie and checking out a blown up tank. Guys do that, but you just can’t.

At least they died saving Hunter Biden’s and Paul Pelosi’s portfolio.

Joe Biden doesn’t want you to see that.

Probably a mistake because we keep hearing about how they are painting tanks to make them look Russian in order to fool Russians.

Well, this could be a result.

Or they were Ukrainians that Zelensky has decided were “traitors.” He’s been busy purging the armed forces and accusing officers and all sorts of people of being treasonous. I think that probably simply means that they have some questions about the whole thing and about Zelensky’s “strategy.”

poorly trained troops will do that.it’s sad.
at least they died knowing that Soros and Schwab will be able to buy Hunter Biden’s paintings from the Uke art museums at a bit of a discount.

That is also very possible. Zelensky has the problem of being strongly tied to the Biden admin and UK. Nothing he does is probably without their consent and approval. Of course we hear Boris was just there meeting with Zelensky.

I simply wish these people would stop killing each other.

It should be personal. Give pooter and zel the clown a knife each and put them in a locked cage. Then drop the cage in the deepest part of the ocean.

The world would be a better place.

Next up Harpoon anti ship from UK.

Enjoy Russian sailors and marines.

Two explosions, nearly simultaneously. So, if canon fire, there were two tanks. Or if missile fire, one tank has the capability of firing two missiles simultaneously. Does Ukraine have tanks which can do this?

I’d go with all of those, and would be real happy if we stopped paying to protect other countries too. Bring the troops home.

Is there not one Sergeant to say, “Spread out. One round would get you all”?

Who trained these guys? Jeez. Don’t bunch up.

A secondary explosion probably. Maybe the reactive armor.

This event made me think of the Pat Tillman fiasco, he was also killed by friendly fire.

Actually it predates the invention of gunpowder by a long shot. In ancient Athens, one of the homicide courts handled cases where an Athenian citizen killed another citizen by mistake in a battle.

“...annoying friendly fire...”

Friendly fire always has the right-of-way.

There is a lot of confusion on video. The IFV they bunch around is in the Ukrainian colors, but it has a V painted on it, indicating Russian forces or separatist mililia.
The tank is obviously a Ukrainian T-64vb, but the DNR separatists operate scores of them as well.
The troops on video are obviously Ukrainian, the IFV is likely former Ukrainian, captured by separating and now repossessed by this Ukrainian units.
The tanks are either Ukrainian or separatist.
There is a clear case of misidentification on both sides.
The troops on video considered the tanks friendly based on their type.
For the tankers it is not clear. They probably first identified the bunch as friendly, but then changed their mind.
If they are Ukrainian, they likely spotted the V mark on the IFV and fired believing it is an ambush. If they are separatists they mentioned the Ukrainian uniform on the troops as they closed in and fired on them.
