Enemy equipment was burning in the forest between the fields near the field road.

But 24 hours a day, our glorious guys keep watch on the front line to preserve peace and tranquility in the cities and villages of free Ukraine.
Together we will win! Glory to Ukraine!", the territorial defense brigade said.
In their report, the ground defense fighters did not specify what kind of weapon was used to destroy the Russian BTR-82A. Probably the car was hit by artillery or mortar fire of the Defense Forces.
It is clear from the published video that the Ukrainian military observed the enemy's positions and the consequences of the damage to the armored personnel carrier from a drone.
BTR-82 is a deep modernization of the Soviet BTR-80 armored personnel carrier, which received a new turret with a 30-mm 2A72 gun. The armored personnel carrier is designed for the transportation of units, their fire support in battle, the destruction of manpower, anti-tank weapons and lightly armored enemy vehicles.

Anti-bullet armoring of the hull and turret provides protection against small arms bullets and fragments of mines and projectiles.
