[ColonelCassad] What to do if you leave the equipment



For those military personnel who do not know what to do with military equipment that cannot be evacuated (no fuel, technical malfunctions, etc.) if it is necessary to withdraw, but must be destroyed so that it does not go to the enemy.

Required:

1. A bottle of gasoline.
2. Rags.
3. Lighter or matches.

Lesson from the Houthis. Watch from the 4th minute.

In this way, you can destroy both captured vehicles (which are not needed), and your own, in case you have to retreat. Since 2015, hundreds of wheeled and tracked vehicles, including tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers, MCIs, armored vehicles, carts, and engineering and construction equipment, have been destroyed in Yemen using the method shown in the video.

As a rule, they set fire to the interior + tires. After that, the equipment is usually not recoverable.
Note that they start babbling about the Jews, Israel, and Americans around 1:42, because reality is unimportant.
