A Telegram channel linked to the Wagner Group, a Russian paramilitary outfit involved in current offensives in Ukraine's eastern region, has released footage that purportedly shows Russian tanks running over troops in the city of Vuhledar.

Grey Zone, a pro-Kremlin Telegram channel, posted footage purportedly from the recent clashes in Vuhledar.
"In Vuhledar, a complete f****** is happening, and it is happening over and over again, often in commanding of the same units that were trumpeting about problems previously, but the problems are not ending," the channel said in a post accompanying the videos.

"At least 30 pieces of lost vehicles, burning tankmen running around, and footage that looks like it's from the movie Purgatory about the war in Chechnya with BMPs [armored personnel carriers] crushing own soldiers."
The footage shared by the Telegram channel shows two soldiers being dragged under a tank, and a soldier covered in flames running from a tank shortly before it explodes.

The gift that keeps on giving.
So they’re dummies according to you….but they’re winning this SMO. So what does that say about Ukraine? 🤣
Maybe it's like when the Bears play the Lions?
Keep winning since a year. Last month they event took a town. Just 2 weeks more...
I’m sure this happened in WW2 as well. They even shot any soldier from behind they thought wasn’t enthusiastic enough in running headlong towards the Nazis.
Um, that they don't have the huge numbers of cannon fodder that the Russians have?
Oh, thank God, the war's over! The Ruskies can't possibly survive this enormous disaster! We're saved, long live Zzelenskyy!!!
;^)
Have you volunteered to fight for The Zelensky yet?
Shocking. But this would routinely happen in US training exercises too. Troops go into the field and literally fall asleep during exercises. Then the tanks roll in and run them over because they don’t expect anyone to be there. Tragic, but it’s yet another form of friendly fire.
Somebody has to win? :)
Putin’s “elite” troops aren’t so “elite”.
Putin’s troops are being pressed into action!

This clearly shows that russia still doesn't have the ability to neutralize copter drones.
The only remaining issue is:
Sable?
Or Mink?
Ukraine just shot down another Russian Su-25 near Bakhmut.
Supposedly that’s a Naval Brigade trying to take Vuhledar. They have mostly T72B3’s and even a T90.
So by current Russian standards it’s some of the “A” team. It doesn’t seem to be direct Uke fire for the most part - they just keep hitting mines. The Ukes must have quite a minefield there. And then the stopped/abandoned vehicles become artillery targets.
As a father of three I get no pleasure in watching another mans son die.
