That is according to the statement of the 24th Separate Mechanized Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on its official page on Facebook.
"During a successful assault in the the outskirts of Bakhmut, the brothers from one of the mechanized brigades "de-caterpillared" the newest Russian T-90 tank," the post reads.

The situation was described as follows: "According to the available data, enemy crew was planning to drag the damaged armored vehicle to the rear at night in order to restore its combat capacity. But, FPV pilots from the Rarog unmanned combat aerial vehicle (UCAV) company of the 24th Separate Mechanized Brigade turned the enemy tank into scrap metal with two accurate hits."
The post was accompanied with the relevant video:
It is noted that tanks of this type have recently increasingly become targets for damage by the Defense Forces of Ukraine. For example, the other day it became known about a whole epic episode of the disposal of the russian T-90M, which was first probably shot down by an FPV drone, then hit by a grenade from a UAV. Finally Ukrainian warriors completely destroyed the vehicle in which the turret flew off.
A little earlier, the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine demonstrated how aerial reconnaissance from the 27th Pechersk Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine pelted the russian T-90M Proryv with grenades from a UAV. Although the further fate of this tank is unknown, the very fact of defeat of this vehicle can be ascertained.
Also, earlier this month, another T-90M was hit by fighters of the 47th OMBr "Magura", who used for this a rather interesting "smart" ammunition with homing subelements of the SMArt 155 or BONUS type.
And at the end of June this year fighters of the K2 group of the 54th OMBr told how they hunted for the russian T-90M Proryv at night and eventually destroyed it with the help of an unmanned aerial vehicle.
Defense Express also reported, that One Captured T-90 Led to Billions of Dollars Lost for russia.
