Tanks and armored vehicles can still move after getting hit and even with their crew killed. The driver compartment in tanks is usually separated from the one used by the rest of the crew. Plus tanks are driven very differently from cars. The driving method differs from tank to tank.

That said, there was a video I saw sometime of an Ukrainian US-made tracked APC that was still moving even after getting getting hit by a Russian drone or Kornet ATGM missile. it moved for three to four seconds before coming to a stop. This was even though everyone in the vehicle was dead or dying after the hit. (A Russian drone recorded the event and remained in the scene for a while. No single person ran out of the APC.)

Also, tanks don't need to be penetrated to be destroyed or to even kill the personnel inside. Plus the Yasin 105 being used is a tandem-style weapon. The front pointy part penetrates the tank and the second explosive blows inside the tank. From the videos, I suppose that the explosion we see is the first one and not the second one. The second one happens inside the tank.

Nevertheless, Hamas doesn't hang around to see the damage because neighboring Israeli tanks, infantry, and aircraft can respond within seconds. That's why they run immediately after firing.

Whichever happens though, we can all agree that the Israeli soldiers inside those tanks are definitely not having a good day.
Thanks for the breakdown

⚡The EU has become as dogmatic as the Soviet Union – Slovakia

“If we can’t tell the truth at the Brussels table that, for example,

1. anti-Russian sanctions didn’t work,
2. that further destruction of Ukraine and killing Ukrainians is going nowhere,
3. that the fanatic implementation of the Green Deal is killing our economies,
4. that 20 thousand casualties in the Gaza Strip cannot be overlooked just because Israel causes them,

…. then we are on a slippery slope that can be not only politically, but also economically destructive for Europe,” Fico wrote in a post on Facebook.
