@nastyatyman Do you have a free or brochure BTR - do you like the body hack as well?

It turns out that the truth is quite different.
Although the woman in the video, Nestia Tuman, was indeed born in Ukraine, she has been living in Russia for years, where she influences a well-known network with more than 800,000 followers on Instagram and 4.2 million followers on Tiktok - and much of its content focuses on cars and her work as a mechanic.
Although there have been recent reports of Russian tanks running out of fuel and even being abandoned, Tuman's video circulating in the net claiming to show her
driving such an abandoned tank - is actually from 2021 and is generally an ADF and not a tank.
"Q, and photographed herself traveling in it to mark Homeland Security Day, which took place on February 23.
This day is meant to commemorate the people who serve or have served in the Russian armed forces, but unofficially this holiday is a day of celebration for men as a whole, and is actually the male equivalent of International Women's Day.

The reason for the confusion and media reports is that Toman once again posted excerpts from the video that was posted on Instagram last year with the caption "Congratulations to all the defenders on Holiday Day" - only this time she also posted it on Tiktok, with a different introduction that may have added confusion and redistribution of the video.
She wrote: "If you come across an available or abandoned armored vehicle - you should know how to operate it."
Although it seems like a wink to her friends in Ukraine and expresses support for them, the war does not really affect the content she uploads on her pages, and she fully identifies with Russian nationalism and was even recently photographed with Ramzen Kadyrov, Chechnya's president collaborating with Putin in invading Ukraine .
