A Russian fighting vehicle has appeared on the battlefield in eastern Ukraine with an unusual new look – spiked bristles and long wavy “hair”.

At least four people died overnight as Russian drone and missile strikes continued to pound Ukraine’s towns and cities, local officials said Saturday. Meanwhile, Moscow’s troops continued their grinding advance through the country’s east.

Recent social media videos show Ukrainian forces using drones similar to IEDs. The drones sit next to roads and then strike Russian military vehicles when they pass.
