18+: UKRAINIAN MINES THWARTED ANOTHER UKRAINIAN ATTACK ON RUSSIAN POSITIONS

Another video of the failed Ukrainian attack was shared online. At first, a group of Ukrainian servicemen is seen hiding behind an infantry fighting vehicle, and then they tried to move and hide in the forest nearby. The soldier who filmed the attack with a GoPro camera was unlucky and stepped on a PFM mine. He lost his foot in the explosion. As he screamed in pain, his comrades can be heard demanding that the armored vehicles returns and takes them out from the battlefield. Ukrainian soldiers had previously complained that they were forced to carry out attacks on areas that had previously been mined by their own forces. LINK Thus, it should not be excluded that the soldier in the video was wounded by a Ukrainian mine. The video was widely distributed by Russian military sources, so it is possible that the camera was captured by Russian servicemen who destroyed the Ukrainian assault group or captured the wounded prisoner as a result of the battle. The Ukrainian military is massively mining civilian areas in the Donetsk urban agglomeration with the same prohibited PFM mines. According to official statistics, as of January 16, 144 cases of civilians, including 10 children, being blown up by PFM-1 Petal mines were registered. Three victims died as a result of their injuries. Ukrainian servicemen themselves often fall victims of their weapons.
