From the Russian point of view, the situation in the Kursk region is critical. The Ukrainian army, which launched its offensive on its territory on August 6, is advancing rapidly. The Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Army, General Oleksandr Syrskyi, announced on Tuesday, August 20, 2024, that the area occupied by Ukrainian forces in the region has increased to 1,263 square kilometers, and the number of towns under their control has increased to 93.
The Ukrainians are wreaking havoc on the Russians, and social media is filled with videos of destruction, Russian surrenders, and the capture of other key points. The Kremlin’s response remains chaotic. A tragic mistake has just been made, and the Russian contingent has paid the ultimate price.
Big mistake by the Russians. They attacked their own soldiers.
In the chaos of the fighting, Russian soldiers made a fatal mistake. At some point, they targeted their own forces.
“A Russian BMP-3 combat vehicle destroyed another Russian army combat vehicle in the Kursk region,” Bild’s correspondent reported.
The video circulating on social media shows the moment a Russian BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicle destroys a Russian BMP-2 vehicle at close range.
At the same time, a Ukrainian light armored personnel carrier Kozak MRAP four-wheel drive, which is only a few dozen meters away, is retreating. According to Euromaidan Press, the situation occurred in the town of Russkaya Konobelka in the Kursk region, east of Soga. The Russians, who probably wanted to shoot at the Ukrainians, made a mistake and destroyed their vehicle that entered the line of fire.
