The Russian armored personnel carrier suffered serious damage, but saved all the Russian military.

An unexpected attack by a fighter’s mobile shahid on Russian armored vehicles proved to be ineffective against the Russian armored personnel carrier BTR-82, the armor of which was able to protect Russian servicemen who were in the cockpit from the explosion of almost a hundred kilograms of TNT - this is enough to demolish the tank’s tower.

On the video frames you can see that the injuries are mainly associated with damage to the external integument - no serious injuries were noticed in the Russian military.

Noteworthy is the fact that initially there was information that the Russian Tiger armored car was at the epicenter of the explosion, and the armored personnel carrier was only affected, however, as it turned out, only one armored vehicle was seriously damaged.

It should be noted that at the moment it remains unknown whether Russia will break the agreement with Turkey to de-escalate the situation in Idlib, since such a clear aggression from militants controlled by Ankara indicates that the situation is only getting worse.
