Despite increasingly intense attacks from the Russians, Ukraine is still bravely defending itself on the front lines. The 47th Mechanized Brigade, "Magura" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, has just boasted another spectacular strike on a Russian unit. This time, a T-72 tank of the enemy army was destroyed, and the crew had no chance.

816th day of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. It is a challenging and intense time for Ukrainian civilians and the army, who are facing numerous difficulties on the front - from problems with arms supplies from the West to increasingly bold and numerous Russian assaults.

Rockets struck Kharkiv, Kherson, and Odesa, and ISW experts report an increasingly difficult situation for Ukrainian forces in Chasiv Yar in the Donetsk region.

Meanwhile, the key Ukrainian unit, the 47th Mechanized Brigade "Magura", which includes fearless and deadly drone operators, has released another video on their Telegram showing a spectacular strike on a Russian unit. The recording was probably made in Donbas, although it is unknown which location it was made in.

In the video, we see a Ukrainian kamikaze drone hitting a Russian T-72 tank directly to the rhythm of a dynamic, sharp, neuropunk track. The enemy machine was located at an intersection near some farms. The force of the explosion was so enormous that the Russian unit was instantly blown apart and dismembered by a massive fireball.

The tank turret flew several meters into the air and landed several meters away, and the demolished fragments of the tank continued to burn long after the strike.
