According to military command, seven Russian tanks crewed with newly mobilized soldiers were deployed to Lyman, Donetsk Oblast on Sept. 26. However, two of them got into an accident on the way.

In addition, the formed crews did not undergo proper fire training with the use of standard tank weapons.

They are being specially assigned to combat units, in order to participate in zones with the most intense fighting.

In the Saky district alone, 21 Crimean Tatars were mobilized on Sept. 26.
