BMP-1 is intended for transportation of personnel of motorized infantry units.
The vehicle was used by the 30th individual mechanized brigade named after Prince Konstantin Ostrozky of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
It was struck by a direct hit of a projectile in the summer of 2016 during artillery shelling of Ukrainian positions near the town of Volnovaha, in the Donetsk region.
Luckily nobody of the crew was inside at the time of the hit.
Most of the equipment was removed from the battered shell of the tank.
