It explains how the tanks are used in the urban setting. Here is a translation from liveleak:

Translated voice-over:

0:12
February 27th. Sunrise above Darya starts a day of attack on enemy controlled areas.

0:32
The objective of operation - squeezing the encircled thugs.

0:48
Tight urban areas allows the terrorists, with the help of foreign instructors to transform streets and neighborhoods into fortresses.

1:07
Early in the morning the tanks get to work.

1:22
The previously spotted terrorist strongholds are engaged with tanks.

2:45
This attack allows infantry to move forward.

3:18
Despite the intense return fire, cooperation of armor and infantry allow the army to advance with minimal losses.

6:06
Well trained and armed opponent uses the urban setting to his advantage. The ability of the tank crew to work as a team, show initiative, and maneuver in tight areas plays an important role.http://www.apacheclips.com/boards/vbtube/images/play_thread.png (http://www.apacheclips.com/boards/vbtube_show.php?tubeid=2790)
