Ukraine releases anti-tank attack footage from eastern outskirts of Kyiv

Yes, it’s The Sun. Judge for yourself.

1. How do you say 'Go back" in Russian?

Those handheld missile launchers are a powerful deterrent.

2. Yes, but that's an awful lot of tanks not destroyed.

4. True but all of them turned around

If they can't use tanks or infantry how can they take cities. Of course that could lead to even more destruction by missiles.

3. Lots of young men will not make it back to their moms in Russia

Because Putin decided to send them to an unjust war.

5. If the audio is genuine, this was a unit roughly equivalent to an armored brigade

About 30-40 tanks plus support vehicles. The commander (probably a colonel) was killed in the attack, the unit in disarray with heavy losses reported. Unclear if anyone assumed command or if any attempts to regroup have taken place

6. It was a very good anti-armor ambush by Ukraine

I don't know if Sybyn was a staging area or if something blocked the road. I suspect it was the former as it appears the Russians stayed in a travel formation rather than transitioning into a combat formation.

They will return but will have to assume they will face opposition here again whether or not anyone is there.
