This is the moment a Russian-controlled tank exploded with a reported six tonnes of explosives onboard. The tank had apparently been captured and was being driven remotely to Ukrainian positions. But 100 metres before reaching the frontline, the vehicle was slowed down as it hit a mine. It was then hit by a Ukrainian rocket, causing the huge explosion, according to reports. Despite not reaching its target, the huge pressure wave from the blast could have been fatal for some. The incident took place near Marinka, on the outskirts of Donetsk, and the tank appears to be a T-54 or T-55. The footage was posted on Telegram by a pro-Russia account. #ukraine #russia #explosion Subscribe to The Telegraph with our special offer: just £1 for 3 months.
