New Delhi: A Ukrainian man single-handedly forced a Russian tank to stop and then knelt in front of it to keep the tank from moving any further, while other civilians rushed towards him to help him in the streets of northern Ukraine's Bakhmach. The viral video was shared by the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs today with the caption "Ukrainian Hulk stopped Russian tank with bare hands".

In the video, the man could be seen being pushed backwards on a street by a massive Russian tank on which he hands his on. Yet he continues to push with his bare hands against the front of the moving vehicle with the force of his body-weight until it slows to a stop.

According to media reports, the tank was reportedly part of a Russian convoy passing through the town of Bakhmach on Saturday, the third day of the Russian conflict.

The video of one of many that demonstrate the efforts of civilians trying to defend their country. In another video, a man with his bare hands removed a mine from the path of Ukrainian troops. In the viral 38-second video the man in Berdyansk spotted a mine on the road and he didn't wait around for a bomb disposal unit.
