In a new video that appeared on social networks, another incomprehensible moment of the Russian army was recorded: an armored car crashes into a line of mines placed on the road, although it is clearly visible.
According to the administrators of the Ukraine Weapons Tracker page, we are talking about the old armored amphibious vehicle MT-LB, which entered service with the Soviet armed forces in the late 1950s and carelessly headed for the mine line. visible on the road.

Ukraine Weapons Tracker notes that the driver probably had “very poor” visibility, and some netizens joked in the comments that the driver of the armored car could have been drunk or had suicidal thoughts.
Probably drunk or suicidal :/

Several commentators also joked that the driver of the car was probably on the phone at the time of the incident.
Best no texting and no ads I’ve ever seen.

Another netizen noted with irony that this would actually be a new “gesture of goodwill” on the part of the invading forces, which would relieve the Ukrainian military from work, referring to the statement of the Russian Ministry of Defense on June 30 regarding the withdrawal from Zmiiny Island.
More gestures of goodwill from the aggressors!
A little work saves the Ukrainian forces!
Victory, peace and freedom of Ukraine!— KlausD (@klausdorth) October 12, 2022
The “gesture of goodwill” also repeatedly caused mockery from the Ukrainian military.
Although the problems with tanks and especially Russian armored vehicles with mines are already well known, of the many videos that have appeared in recent months showing at least questionable decisions by the Russian military behind the wheel of combat vehicles, this appears to be the first in which someone goes straight into the mine, although it is as visible as possible.
In fact, as you can see in the footage, not one, but two rows of mines are clearly visible on the road.
Other footage that previously appeared on social media, for example, shows an armored vehicle trying to slip through another disabled combat vehicle, and the danger, while obvious, is never so visible.
Video of a Russian BMP hitting a mine near two damaged BMPs. A good indicator of why Russian troops ride their BMPs. https://t.co/vsaYefR0F9 pic.twitter.com/L84xWMjKYB

A similar entry, but this time with a tank:
