Soldiers from the Signum battalion of the 53rd separate mechanized brigade destroyed a column of Russian invaders' armored vehicles that was advancing in the Lyman direction.

According to Ukrinform, the Khortytsia operational-strategic group of troops reported this on Telegram and published a video.

Reconnaissance from the 81st Separate Airborne Brigade spotted a column of enemy armored vehicles—a tank with a mine-clearing blade, followed by two infantry fighting vehicles.

Pilots from the SIGNUM battalion directed a cumulative charge from a strike drone directly into the tank's driver's cab, stopping it.

The middle infantry fighting vehicle was taken out by a neighboring unit.
