Ukraine 68th Jaeger Brigade Annihilates Russian Armor At Pokrovsk

The 68th destroyed what amounts to an entire Russian armored company, plus support vehicles on the Pokrovsk front, one of the most heavily contested areas where Russia is pressing its attacks. 

That the Ukrainian destroyed so many armored vehicle does not speak well of Russian tactics, training or combined arms support. JL 

The Kyiv Post reports:

The 68th Jaeger Brigade – a veteran formation - a Russian tank company on the Pokrovsk front. "Our Defense Forces destroyed eight Russian tanks and put two more out of order, destroyed eight more armored fighting vehicles, two artillery systems, and four other vehicles, along with damaging another.. This makes up a tank company,”

The 68th Jaeger Brigade – a veteran formation of the Russo-Ukrainian War – shared a video Friday on Facebook showing the destruction of a Russian tank company in eastern Ukraine.

 

Nazar Voloshyn, the spokesman for the Khortytsia grouping of forces told the state-run news agency Ukrinform, that the video’s authentic.

“In the Pokrovsk axis, our Defense Forces destroyed eight Russian tanks and put two more out of order. That’s 10 in total. This makes up a tank company,” Voloshyn said.

Voloshyn said that in the same sector, Ukrainian troops destroyed eight more armored fighting vehicles, two artillery systems, and four other vehicles, along with damaging another.
