Given the fact that the American M777 howitzer was spoted in the video, it can be assumed that high-precision Excalibur projectiles flew over the russian heavy armor.
The first tank tried to hide in the settlement, but it failed to escape from the watchful "eye" of Ukraine’s reconnaissance UAV - a well-hit 155-mm projectile caused a fire, and the crew had to flee from the tank.
The second shell "found" the tank in the forest strip, but in this case the crew decided to "take a risk" and tried to run away as far as possible on the burning tank, but eventually stopped in the same forest strip.
In any case, the Ukrainian artillerymen managed to add two enemy tanks to the statistics of Russian losses in Ukraine. Even according to the modest calculations of the Oryx intelligence blog, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, the invaders have already lost 1,407 tanks, of which the Ukrainian military received 490 tanks as trophies. According to statistic of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine russia lost 2590 tanks in Ukraine from February 24 to October 24.
