Newly surfaced video evidence shows a U.S.-supplied M2 Bradley Infantry Fighting Vehicle (IFV) engaging and destroying a Russian MT-LB armored vehicle near Avdiivka, Ukraine. The M2 Bradley, equipped with a 25mm cannon and anti-tank missile launchers, was seen utilizing its superior firepower against Russian armored columns attempting to advance towards Ukrainian positions.
The encounter occurred as Russian forces, deploying two tanks and five MT-LB tracked armored vehicles, launched an assault on Ukrainian defenses near Donetsk. The Bradley’s effective use of its weaponry not only halted but reversed one of these advances by setting one of the MT-LBs aflame after a focused hail of bullets.
