Russian forces have claimed a significant victory near the strategic city of Pokrovsk in Donbass, successfully capturing fortified Ukrainian positions after a fierce assault.
A video released by Russia's Ministry of Defense shows the destruction of a German-made Leopard tank, hit by a missile strike.
Drone footage captures the devastating moment as the missile strikes the Ukrainian tank, followed by the collapse of a nearby shelter.
The attack also involved suicide drones targeting deep trenches and dugout shelters.
Despite heavy casualties on both sides, Russian troops have made substantial progress, intensifying the threat to the already vulnerable Pokrovsk.
The city remains a crucial supply hub for Ukrainian defenses but is increasingly under pressure from Russian advances.

In a rare and intense tank-on-tank battle near Pokrovsk, Donetsk People's Republic, Russian forces clashed with Ukrainian armored units, resulting in one Ukrainian tank being destroyed. The confrontation occurred as part of a Russian convoy advancing towards a wooded area on the outskirts of the village. The battle escalated quickly as both sides fired at each other, missing initially, but a Russian tank landed several direct hits on the leading Ukrainian tank, causing it to catch fire and become inoperative. The second Ukrainian tank retreated but was later hunted down and destroyed by FPV kamikaze drones. This dramatic video showcases the rare occurrence of direct tank combat amidst the heavy use of drones, marking a rare but significant escalation in tank warfare in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict.
