Footage showed numerous destroyed tanks, vehicles as well as multiple Russian casualties dispersed in a field.
Ukraine has wiped out on of Russia's biggest tank charges since the start of the war, destroying 12 tanks in one day.
Footage showed 48 Russian tanks and other vehicles coming under attack from Ukrainian drones, missiles and artillery.
It shows the convoy of Russian tanks and armoured vehicles moving in the east of Ukraine alongside soldiers.
Kyiv's forces then struck the convoy as it moved down a single road, taking out 12 tanks and eight armoured vehicles as well as several Russian personnel.
Footage then captured smoke billowing from the vehicles as they lay in a field in Tonenke, eight miles west of Avdiivka.

Ukrainian mothers - hide your 12-year-olds!
The Ukie press gangs will be on them like Joe Biden on a grandchild in the shower.
The latest round of Russian air raids have brought Ukraine’s energy grid to the brink, with officials admitting, and then denying, the severity of the problem.
The head of DTEK, Ukraine’s largest private energy firm, said that five of its six plants had been damaged or destroyed.
80% of the company’s generating capacity is lost, and repairs could take up as much as an year and a half!
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Russia was carrying out ‘vile strikes’ to ‘bleed’ the Ukrainian energy systems.
DTEK supplies about a quarter of the country’s energy, and has seen its thermal power stations and other facilities repeatedly hit by Russian missiles, drones and artillery.
Based on the number of Armored Fighting Vehicles the unit could be a reinforced battalion or regimental unit. One aspect of this war is the inability of either side to engage in effective offensive operations at a regimental or larger units. This war is almost a complete mirror image of massive formations of Panzer Divisions and Red Army Tank Corps moving with speed and power back and forth in the Donbass.
It would have been a lot uglier if the Ukrainians had more weapons. The article states that the Russians used 48 tanks.

The only thing DHS war has brought is death and destruction. It’s the likes of WWI all over again.
Yay Marglemukimus! 🏆
Yep, I heard they ran out of shovels and now they’re using garden spades and sticks.
Any Zeepers on this bus??
Oh sure, being 17 is a great age to die for a insane, gay, cross dressing, Ukrainian leader.
Why not?? Zeepers just love to see another generation being killed.
No way in effin hell would a child of mine sit on this bus!
Wow, that was a nutty rant, and with name calling to boot.
Lol, name calling?
Sorry you are so easily offended.

Any day now, the Ukies will be marching on the Kremlin. Any day now...
My take is different too. NATO is a useless entity, that has never accomplished any real long-term effectiveness, and the fact that they took U.S. money for 75 years, which has been the bulk of their budget all those years, and wasted it, doesn't bode well for any so-called "change" in the future. Leopards don't change their spots. You are way too optimistic. This is an organization that was established in 1949 in the post WWII era, and it's a dinosaur that should have been made extinct years ago. It's as useless as the U.N.
NATO defeated the Russian empire and now is standing against the chances of a new Russian empire, and they are beginning to prepare to assist us if the almost certain war with China comes.
We are going to need NATO.
12 tanks are Putin’s biggest charge?
B.S. Russia defeated their own evil empire through communism, and Reagan hit the final nail in their communist coffin. NATO is a shill organization.
