These photos have just been published in twitter, and show a T-90 knocked out T-90 in Khanazer, Syria. The most likely cause was an AT missile. Note the turret in the "6 position". The yellow flag probably belongs to Hezbollah. The fire is only visible in one of the hatches, and could be caused by the 12.7 mm ammunition (see video)
A version on the T-90 loss was provided at @SyrianMilitary, who quotes a
Republican Guard captain. The T-90 was being operated the Al Fatemeyoon shia
militia. The vehicle was far inside enemy territory -controlled by ISIS-, but
the Shtora was not on. The most dangerous threat was supposed to be 23 mm guns.
The crew was surprised bu an AT missile that hit the upper part of the
turret, knocking out sights and the MG. Another AT missile hit the side,
injuring the driver. Gunner and commander abandoned vehicle. The driver was
rescued 1 hour later. After a few hours the fire reached the ammunition because
the hatches were left opened.
