Russian soldiers proved their own worst enemies in newly-unearthed footage from Ukraine which shows them narrowly avoiding killing themselves and each-other on the battlefield. In one video, a Russian soldier stupidly decides to destroy a mine hidden in a wood by shooting it with his rifle, causing a large explosion that knocks him to the ground. In another, a second Russian in a similar piece of forest decides to employ the same tactic but rather than shoot the mine, decides to hit it with a log – with predictable results. In a third, a Russian goes to fire an RPG at Ukrainian lines but fails to realise his comrade is standing behind him, knocking him to the floor with the back-blast from the launch. Finally, three Russian armoured vehicles were blown to piece by driving straight into mines. Two were blown up simultaneously on mine buried in Stepove, to the north of Avdiivka while a third was blow to smithereens not far away in the town of Maryinka.
