The column is detected by the UAV ZALA 36 of the army of group V. Artillery begins to work on the column, there is a hit in the tank. The column continues to move, reaches a kind of crossroads with a skeleton of burnt armored vehicles, the tank of the Armed Forces of Ukraine removes a mine with a trawl, the artillery at this time intensifies the fire.
As a result, the whole procession decides to retreat. Perhaps also because the trawl on the tank of the Armed Forces of Ukraine was damaged, which can be seen at the end of the “first series”.
In the second episode, which took place a day later and in which the enemy acted with approximately the same forces, the tank was less fortunate - after a mine explosion, it was immobilized, the crew left the car.

It is possible that the purpose of all these maneuvers was the rotation of enemy forces, or maybe both “arrivals” were attempts to attack, but the second time the platoon commander decided to take cover from artillery attack in the trenches, and not in the MRAP.

12:55 The author of the Telegram channel Rybar about the missile attack on the cape Tarkhankut:
On the morning of August 23, Ukrainian formations again attacked the Crimean peninsula. Cape Tarkhankut, on which several military facilities are located, was hit, and which the Armed Forces of Ukraine have been actively monitoring for several weeks, including with the help of NATO satellites.
Only this time, the Armed Forces of Ukraine changed their tactics: first, two drones, probably Mugin-5, that took off from Krivoy Rog, approached the peninsula at a distance of 30-40 kms and called in air defense fire.
The drones were shot down, but almost immediately after the launch of anti-aircraft missiles, three Ukrainian missiles were fired from the sea.
Just yesterday, 40 kms from Tarkhankut, a group of boats with reconnaissance officers from the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine operated, which, probably, carried out visual observation of objects near the Crimea.
Yes, our pilots destroyed one of the boats, as well as two more near Snake Island, but the rest, operating 5-10 kms away, left. Their activity there was unique, but today's attack shows that it was not accidental.
The strike itself, presumably, was inflicted by anti-ship missiles. It can be both "Harpoons" and "Neptunes". And here it is worth adding that for two weeks, Ukrainian sailors were actively transporting unidentified weapons to Zmeiny Island and an empty gas production facility to the east of it.
And the threat from boats cannot be written off. They at least have portable anti-aircraft missile and anti-tank systems, including RBS-17, armed with Hellfires
12:35 Today around 11:30 Moscow time crossed an attempt by the Kyiv regime to carry out a terrorist attack with an aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicle.
By air defense means, the UAV was detected and destroyed over the territory of the Belgorod region.

Footage of the combat work of the T-90M "Breakthrough" tank crews assigned to the units of the Tula paratroopers in the Seversk direction
In this direction, intensive hostilities are complicated by the difficult terrain. The line of contact runs between two hills. On the opposite side of the hill there are already enemy fortified areas. The crew of the vehicle tries to get as close as possible to the enemy.
11:25 Ukrainian formations staged another act of terror directed against the civilian population of the Belgorod region.
In the village of Lavy, Valuysky urban district, enemy UAVs attacked a local sanatorium twice: three people were killed, and the facade of the building was also damaged.
In addition, according to local sources, the villages of Kozinka and Dronovka of the Graivoron urban district came under fire.
