Do you mean a .50 Barret sniper rifle? It won't take out a tank but it's possible yet difficult with a BMP if an armour piercing round is aimed between the wheels from the side where the driver sits where the armour is thin. You shouldn't call all tracked vehicles tanks. Start learning the differences if you want to comment on a war thread.

T90 Tank:

BMP Armoured Fighting Vehicle:

The T-62 side lower armour is doable for the 50 cal AP HE round. So the same shot that can kill a BMP now kills the MBT the Russians are starting to field.

Depending where the 20mm armour is then it does make it interesting for a .50 cal

Also sounds like the tank is more dangerous to its users than enemies

"“Comfort” standards were also poor and would have been unacceptable in western tanks. The gun autoloader automatic ejector was modified several time, and on the production model, quite energetic. In fact it was so violent and poorly aligned to the rear ejection port that spent cartridges sometimes bounced wildly inside the turret, with the risk of burns and serious injuries for the crew, accompanied with large bursts of poisonous carbon monoxide."

Witness testimony is evidence, you could call them liars but then you would have to discredit their words.

Do you know how witness testimony works? They were prisoners and said that they were tortured.

Did it definitely happen, I don't know, I imagine they would need to be examined by Doctors to confirm their story. It might just be a propaganda story but you cannot say it definitely didn't happen without further investigation.

I am sure that will all come out with the rest of the 10k+ warcrimes that are being investigated against russia.

On 2 March, the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) opened a full investigation into past and present allegations of war crimes, crimes against humanity, or genocide committed in Ukraine by any person from 21 November 2013 onwards, set up an online method for people with evidence to initiate contact with investigators, and sent a team of investigators, lawyers, and other professionals to Ukraine to begin collecting evidence.[36][37][38] Two other independent international agencies are also investigating violations of human rights and of international humanitarian law in the area: the International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine, established by the United Nations Human Rights Council on 4 March 2022, and the UN Human Rights Monitoring Mission in Ukraine, deployed by OHCHR. The latter started monitoring human rights violations by all parties in 2014 and employs nearly 60 UN human rights monitors. On 7 April 2022, the United Nations suspended Russia from the UN Human Rights Council.[39] By early June, the Ukrainian Prosecutor's office had documented more than 14,000 alleged Russian war crimes, identified more than 600 suspects and initiated proceedings against approximately 80 of them.[40]

When I first saw the video of their release getting off the bus, the first thing that seemed most noticeable is that they all looked as if they were at least not starved, unlike the Mariupul prisoners who were skin and bone.

At least we generally supply a link to the post being referenced which has further links ( like in the case of this one ).
You lot just spout **** without any kind of reference.

But then again I guess it is hard to supply any link when you have a list of things you need to try punt that have been supplied by your handlers.

Most of your ilk's crap is just blah blah fing blah ....

I'm genuinely curious. I read the article and the testimony comes from a single person. Considering how media loves to sensationalize anything connected with Russian atrocities, I'm surprised there are no visuals.

Edit:you don't need a medical confirmation for burns and hammer injuries.

the thing is, i can ignore all that russia or putin has said and only read what un, unhrc, cnn, reuters, nbc news, the guardian, bbc, aljezeera, bellingcat, jewish media, akademics, etc. has said over the past few years leading up to this.


and you will still deny it. as if the ukrainian government did absolutely nothing wrong. all of a sudden they just got happy slapped. :eek:


always another side to a story, unless it doesnt suit you, right...
