Default Ukranian Army leaves a BMP unattended. Watch what happens *Video*

Near Mariupol, Ukraine, the Army apparently leaves a fully armed and fuelled-up BMP unattended in a Civi street.

Curious onlookers check it out and one clown manages to fire the main gun!



Just....wow

It looks like somebody was hurt as a result of that cannon being fired.

True that. The cameraman was pretty stupid getting between the gun and the impact zone on that wall.

Given the absent-minded and rather incompetent aspect the Ukrainian military has demonstrated in the last few weeks, I'm now of the opinion that taking away their nuclear warheads and hiding them, may have been the wisest thing the US and Russia ever did together.

Great Success...

Still, I must admit...I'd be tempted, although I'd have elevated the cannon first. Least they didn't launch the TOW as well.

Probably gave them drone instructions, that's why they've left, to go and try and remote control it from a nearby cafe.

Looks like the old man got a heart attack not an injury.
