The engine maintenance hatch is open. Geez. I wonder why they just left it there...

simple as fvck.
Unit moves forward, if the equipment is unserviceable - it's left behind for repair units to gather&collect later. Unserviceable or simply broken - off road, pick up the crew, go on.
Since they're behind - there is lil chance most of it will ever be useful for Ukrainians - as those are by definition cut off.
Yes - they are left unguarded, because the crew left with them. Leaving crew or small detachments to guard equipment - they're simply asking to be prayed upon.
Yes, leaving tanks here and there makes them vulnerable to be burned down by unfriendly local population - but that's the nature of deep operations.

There is a lot of fvckups here, but the logic is sound - this is how it's done.

Well this is the interesting part. I viewed the video via a Twitter link from the BBC at about 9am GMT. I specifically scrolled the video effectively frame by frame in the last two seconds before the explosion. I can assure everybody that I did not see a projectile on the video at that time.

Now I don't have an issue with the idea of an attack of this sort, the building was a Command and Control center, it is highly likely that it was being used as such by Ukrainian forces in the city, in bunkers beneath it if not necessarily the office space above ground.
I was watching to see what had hit it and was genuinely surprised to see nothing. I checked several times and posted in the link that there was no projectile and that it looked like an explosive charge deliberately let off in the building by the Ukrainian army.

Half an hour later, Sequ posts a picture and then a link showing a very obvious and unmissable cylinder image descending into the building before an explosion. I checked the BBC link and that video now showed a cylinder where none had been before.

Annoyingly the Twitter link on the BBC has disappeared and been replaced by an embedded video.
Now I am not very tecky, and I don;t have a link to the actual tweet I viewed (and I don't know Twitter very well)
I do know however that with so many bright young IT smart guys here, it must be possible for one to find it and to:
a) Check the upload time to see if the last upload was after 9am GMT
b) to see if there is an historical archive of the site that still shows an earlier version of the video.

Dude, you might want to check that again , bcz the damage it done to the building or the plaza matches perfectly what a kalibr can do, that missile penetrated the whole building from the roof and detonated, if that damage was done by explosives put into the building before, it would definitely tear the whole building or at least a large chunk of it down , reinforced concrete buildings are extremely strong , a blast powerful enough to penetrate three floors shall not leave a whole body on the plaza
