Volunteer Serhii Sternenko published the video. The tanks were destroyed when they tried to approach the Russian-Ukrainian border with the Sumy region. Thanks to the prompt actions of the aerial reconnaissance unit, it was possible to spot two enemy tanks stuck in the mud and unable to continue moving.

Initially, the tanks were supposed to be destroyed by cannon artillery, but since it was difficult to conduct accurate fire, it was decided to use FPV drones to destroy them. FPV drones from the Wings to Hell unit of the 103rd Territorial Defense Brigade successfully entered immobilized tanks and destroyed them.

It should be noted that due to the unsuccessful attempt to conduct an assault in the Kharkiv region, the enemy is trying to carry out a similar maneuver in the Sumy region. The Ukrainian Armed Forces are clearing the liberated settlements, where they managed to capture a large number of the Russian invaders.
