Russian military personnel have revised the purpose of TM-62M anti-tank mines and have begun using them to destroy enemy positions by directly throwing the projectile. This was reported by the Telegram channel @binary_glasses.
Soldiers drill holes in the side of the mine, into which a universal five-second detonator with a pin is inserted. After that, the mine can be used as a regular grenade – pull the pin and throw it into the building.
The result is colossal damage to the building; small houses were razed to the ground.
