I never saw anything incoming it just suddenly blew up. And who was the guy that ran away from near it later? I didn’t get that either, maybe there was an accident inside the tank and a shell exploded.

That's what happens when you use a high explosive anti-tank round to hit a tank fully loaded with high explosive rounds for the main gun, and machine gun ammunition.

Those look like t-72’s. If memory serves, the main battle gun’s ammo is stored in the rear. As another poster pointed out, one might have gone off in the breach prematurely. That could have definitely cooked off the rest (I don’t think the warhead is “armed” until spun out of the barrel, but it has been a while)

Frame by frame looks like an anti tank round hits the turret, and then some of the explosion vents out the main gun barrel.

Looks like ragtags demolishing abandoned/captured equipment for video. Or maybe gubmint troops do it to prevent passing tanks to jihadis.

A “Syrian tank brews up” ... ?

“Brews up”?

Can’t be. Muslims do not drink alcohol.
