A Russian soldier who bragged about kills on the frontline in Ukraine while on Instagram Live was blown to pieces while broadcasting to his followers.
The young soldier was apparently bragging about his column’s success for the day as he casually strolled through an active warzone, speaking to his camera.
Moments later a large explosion abruptly halts the video – and reportedly takes the soldier’s life.
“Our main goal has been completed at A+, we got on only 3 x 300 (wounded),” a caption along with the video reads, posted on Reddit.
There is uncertainty around whether the soldier was shooting a live video, or a story, and whether it was Instagram or TikTok.
Either way, people online agreed that it was ill advised to appear so casual in a warzone.
“Imagine walking around like your taking a stroll in a park in an active warzone. No tactical columns, no spacing, and absolutely no situational awareness.
“2nd best military in the world? Get f***** Orc,” one commenter blasted.”
Another added: “Dude you’re in the middle of a f***** war and you’re filming a tick tok video. Absolute fools, Slava Ukraini.”
“Well, karma’s quick,” wrote a third person.
