Footage of a Ukrainian T-64 tank being pursued by Russian FPV drones has been published. The video was filmed in the Donbass near the settlement of Velyka Novosilka. The tank is equipped with a Ukrainian version of drone protection, in the form of a "barbecue" made of mesh. The Ukrainian tank was attacked by two Russian drones. The first drone struck the tank's turret, but the tank continued moving. The second drone struck the engine and transmission part of the tank, after which the tank lost its speed and a fire started inside.

Lifted this from a Russian site. The photoset was images of animals and humorous captions... not so humorous to mobiks, though!

I really wonder why none of this is being reported on. In the 90s every detail on the Balkans were splattered all over the news.
Then again I think I just answered my own question, public opinion was being massaged towards interventions.

Archival footage of a Russian aerial bomb, presumably FAB-500T, with a UMPK module, hitting the production facilities of the Ukrainian Motor Sich plant in Zaporozhye. The video was filmed on January 8. The FAB-500T bomb is heat-resistant, the warhead weighs 256 kg. Initially, the FAB-500T was designed to be dropped at high speeds, up to 2,500 km/h, by MiG-25RB aircraft. In this case, the bomb was dropped by a Russian Su-34NVO aircraft, from an altitude of about 10,000 meters and a flight speed of about 900 km/h. This allowed the FAB-500T bomb to fly more than 70 km to its target.
