As Russian troops approach the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, some are digging in for a fight. As you’d expect, some are fleeing the city. Within days, the city could fall to Russian forces who are facing stiffer resistance from the Ukrainian military than what was originally expected. The viciousness of the Russian military was captured in a viral video showing a Russian tank going out of its way to run over a civilian vehicle. It’s horrifying to watch, but it ends on a good note. The driver, an elderly man, miraculously survived being run over (via NY Post):

Hoax, already debunked.
Fake.
IIRC wasn’t this shown to be a Ukrainian vehicle?
100 % fake news
Actually was a Ukrainian vehicle. It was an accident.
If Tucker Carlson actually referred to that vehicle as a “Russian tank,” then he has officially demoted himself to the same place at Fox News previously held by Shep Smith and Geraldo Rivera … who permanently established Fox as a clown show by wailing about people eating each other in the New Orleans Superdome during their live Hurricane Katrina coverage.
Ah, the fog of war.
“The viciousness of the Russian military was captured in a viral video showing a Russian tank going out of its way to run over a civilian vehicle.”
Except it was not Russian. And it was not a tank. And it was accident.
Apart from that, very accurate.
In all fairness if I had myself a tank......
Hoax ?
yes, facts are very murky....whose tank, who was driving, stolen uniforms, intentional or an evasive measure ?
Tucker may have spoken too soon.
We should used these threads as honey pots for finding Russian disinformation agents. Three of them post here repeating the exact same Kremlin lie in only a couple of minutes.
The good news is it shows Putin’s desperation. His undertrained and poorly equipped conscript army is failing, and he doesn’t know what to do.
It’s pretty widely understood that the original article claim has been debunked, dude.

Hello, glowworm.
Lists. Always keep lists. You never know when good fortune comes your way. I just keep paper in my pocket. Folded six times with hundreds of cryptic quips and observations for the ready.
More like active disinformation.
It looked like an accident. The skid marks from the prior turn and the fact that the vehicle was traveling in a slightly different direction than it was pointed say big time skidding. The vehicle is not a tank. Had it been a tank the vehicle weight would have smashed the car quite handily. It is an air defense unit (see 8 SAM missile tubes on top).
Its not a Tank!!! Its a SA missile unit.
