Soldiers of the 68th Oleksa Dovbush Jaeger Brigade captured Russian T-80 and T-90M tanks in the area of the unit’s responsibility.

The brigade’s press service reported on this.

Ukrainian soldiers also captured a Russian BMP-2 IFV.

The brigade explained how they managed to do it:

“The tank crews managed to capture this “miracle of technology” in almost working order. The tank led a large-scale assault on the Russian invaders, which ended in a complete fiasco for them. The crew of the T-90 left their newest vehicle on the battlefield and simply ran away.”

This was preceded by an unsuccessful Russian assault, which the Ukrainian defenders defeated.

“Our mechanic-driver took a risk to get to the tank through the gray zone and returned back on it,” the brigade’s soldier shared about the capture of the latest Russian T-90M tank.

Our defenders did not stop there, and later, two more units of enemy armored vehicles were added to the list of trophies from that battle – a T-80 tank and a BMP-2, which were captured by soldiers of the 68th Jaeger Brigade.

“From now on, these trophies will ruthlessly destroy their previous owners!” they wrote about the tanks’ new assignments.

This equipment was probably captured during the brigade’s defensive battles in the Pokrovsk sector when the Russian soldiers engaged tanks and infantry fighting vehicles in assault operations. All armored vehicles were protected by special anti-drone “grills.”

Thanks to the coordinated actions of intelligence officers, artillerymen, anti-tank gunners, attack drone pilots, and sappers, 8 Russian tanks and 8 more infantry fighting vehicles were destroyed.

The nature of the explosions indicates that cluster munitions supplied by partners were used to destroy Russian manpower and armored vehicles.
