It's not that they do it entirely on purpose. Apparently they drive the vehicles into routes they believe have been cleared but have already been mined again by artillery. First one blows up, the rest panic. As they can't reverse fast enough they need to turn the vehicles around running into more mines. Eventually they all get blown up. Astonishing to look at. Not to mention driving too close to each other, driving in a row close to front line, not having the mine sweepers in the lead vehicles amd so forth.
Every cloud has a silver lining.

This is almost aviation content, #583 was a competitor in the single stage to orbit turret toss. Reading the inscription, it turns out to have been attached to the group that was involved in the atrocities at Bucha in March 2022. That it gained donations to the defence of Ukraine from the criminals of the Kremlin is a fitting end to it.
