Maybe it's a mercy kill compared to what could happen to him!

Truly is the only offensive tactic that Russia knows, they have the numbers so they don't care for the lives of their soldiers so just keep throwing endless waves of combatants at the enemy and hope sheer numbers overwhelm the enemy, pretty much their tactics since the Soviets. They'd be absolutely f*cking screwed as a country if they didn't have the number of bodies they do have.

It's frustrating to see Russia display that they don't give a single f*ck about the lives of their soldiers and yet still seeing Russians charge headfirst into their graves for Russia whilst at the same time whining that Russia doesn't care about them but not doing a thing about it. You'd think the smart thing to do now would be hunker down behind the defensive lines and wait for Ukraine to come to them but nope, we need to get a few kms extra of land no matter what.

There is no way the BMP driver could see if there is something/someone hidden in the high grass behind him. Though it looks the guy that was flattened was at least injured before. It is very dangerous to be near a tank in action. I remember being so stupid and standing a few meters behind a tank once. It suddenly jumped back and I almost got hit, taught me a lesson forever burnt into my brain.

It's funny how Russia apparently hasn't realised yet what the rest of the world realised back in World War I; 18th and 19th century charge tactics don't work well against machine guns.

Hey, they managed to do it despite machineguns and assault rifles in WW2, so they think they can do it again. But Nazi Germany didn't have the time to dig in properly and were short on other equipments like tanks, things that ain't true for Ukraine, while the soviet union had a massive advantage in numbers, but in personel and equipment, so they could afford it - and even then, if D-Day would have failed, they'd run out of bodies before they'd reached Berlin. But in this war, they are alone and are running out of bodies already.
