In the Lyman sector, operators of the Signum battalion destroyed three Russian tanks that hit mines. All targets were eliminated using kamikaze drones, according to the Signum battalion's channel.

Pilots of the Signum battalion released a video showing the destruction of three enemy tanks that drove onto a minefield.

After the explosions, the vehicles were left immobilized, but Ukrainian operators decided to finish them off to prevent the enemy from restoring the equipment.

The first tank was hit directly under the barrel by a drone strike — the explosion completely destroyed it. The second tank was disabled after being hit in the engine compartment. The third was precisely struck through the hatch, leaving the crew no chance of survival.

"Each explosion is like a seal on a verdict. We don't give the enemy a second chance," the soldiers said.

According to Signum, the enemy left three “metal carcasses” on a forest road that no longer pose a threat to Ukraine's Defense Forces.

Russian losses

Earlier today, the Security Service of Ukraine reported a series of precise nighttime strikes on warehouses and bases of Russian forces in the temporarily occupied territories.

Ukrainian troops continue to inflict significant losses on the occupying forces in manpower and equipment, effectively undermining the enemy’s offensive capabilities behind the front lines.

In particular, Russian losses over the past day amounted to nearly 1,000 personnel.

Ukrainian forces also destroyed four armored combat vehicles, 25 artillery systems, 348 unmanned aerial vehicles, and 121 units of Russian automotive equipment.

It is worth noting that Ukraine's 2nd National Guard Corps Khartia alone eliminated over 600 Russian personnel in October.
