ISIS terrorists have targeted a Russian-made T-90 main battle tank with an anti-tank guided missile near the village of Drehym in the area east of the town of Khanasser in the province of Aleppo.
The incident took place on January 23 and allegedly resulted in killing of the tank’s crew.
Pro-ISIS sources claim that it was totally “destroyed” and the released video shows a burning T-90 tank. The further developments over the tank are unknown.
This could be the first T-90 battle tank destroyed by terrorists during the conflict.
