Dramatic Call Of Duty-style footage shows Ukrainian troops blowing up Russian Z tank as Putin’s soldiers cower behind it

DRAMATIC Call Of Duty-style footage shows the moment Ukrainian troops blast a Russian tank.

Vladimir Putin's troops can be seen cowering behind the vehicle which has the distinctive Russian Z marking on it.


The footage was taken from a Ukrainian armoured vehicle which came across its Russian foe in a village.

The Ukrainians catch site of one Russian tank and open fire then drive on to the next block.

Suddenly they see another Russian tank right in front of them and immediately open fire, blasting the turret off.

Other rounds fired soon obliterate the tank which explodes in a hail of gunfire as Russian troops cower behind it.

The new footage follows that of an ambush by brave Ukrainians using lethal anti-tank missiles at the weekend.

Footage of the successful counterattack – the latest of several caught on film in a matter of days amid Putin's crumbling invasion – shows a rocket make a direct hit.

Posted online, the clip shows what appears to show one of the convoys being obliterated as Russian troops quickly scatter.

At least one Russian tank and one armoured personnel carrier seems to have been hit by the missiles – which were fired from behind trees.

The Russian tank can be seen being hit and exploding into flames in the aerial strike.

Drones allegedly obliterated Russian tanks and missiles as Ukrainians are heard cheering in the background.

In the footage, a Russian vehicle carrying what looks to be missiles, and a military tank are seen exploding into fireballs as Putin's invasion continues to crumble.

And cheers could be heard in the background as the military machines, thought to be Russian, were thrown up in flames.

This comes as footage earlier showed the moment a column of Russian tanks were destroyed by a Ukrainian ambush near Kyiv.

The attack reportedly claimed the life of yet another senior Russian commander as Vladimir Putin’s forces press in on the capital city.

The Russian tyrant expected a quick victory when he ordered the invasion two weeks, ago but his forces have become bogged down and now regularly hit civilians.

It comes as…

  •  A woman and her unborn baby died after a Russian airstrike hit a maternity hospital in Ukraine.
  • A Russian spy captain was killed during a "top-secret" operation in Ukraine
  • Britain is ready to join a war against Russia if crazed Vladimir Putin attacks a NATO country, Sajid Javid vowed today.
  • US journalist shot dead and colleague wounded while covering war in Ukraine 
  • Russia has released chilling new footage of its 7,000mph Zircon hypersonic nuke missile that could hit London in five minutes.
  •  Workers workers at Chernobyl are too tired to make safety repairs at the Russian-occupied nuclear site.
  • Defiant President Volodymyr Zelensky visited wounded troops in hospital and handed out medals
  • Bits joined Ukrainian troops in World War One-style trenches with one wielding a Soviet-made World War Two machine gun.

But more sad news has come out of Ukraine – as word came that Putin destroyed an entire CITY of 21,000 people as the horrific battle continues to get bloodier.

The city and administrative centre of Volnovakha has been completely wiped out amid Russia's annihilation, its regional governor revealed.

Russian forces have also been accused of gunning down women and children – killing seven civilians who were trying to escape a village near Kyiv.

Russian-backed separatists claimed to have captured the strategic city of Volnovakha, which is the same size as Truro in Cornwall.

Pavlo Kyrylenko, the governor of the Donetsk region, said most civilians in Volnovakha had escaped – but there was barely anything left of the city.

"In general, Volnovakha with its infrastructure as such no longer exists," he said.

Horrific images showed Russian soldiers and armoured vehicles in Volnovakha -surrounded by burnt-out buildings in the completely gutted city.

It comes after defiant Volodymyr Zelensky vowed Russia will only take Kyiv if Vladimir Putin's troops "raze it to the ground" as the Ukrainian capital prepares for a siege.

The battle around the capital is raging on as Russian forces close in, with brave Ukrainian soldiers setting up tank traps on the streets to repel invaders.

Putin's troops are inching closer and are believed to be just 15 miles from the city as terrified Ukrainians continue to flee their homes.

Russia was accused of killing seven people – including a child – who were making a last-ditch attempt to flee the warzone.

Ukraine's intelligence service accused Russia of firing at a convoy of civilian evacuees from the village of Peremoha in the Kyiv region.

They said in a statement: "After the attack, the occupiers forced the remnants of the column to turn back to Peremoha and are not letting them out of the village.

"Russians shot a column of women and children while trying to evacuate from the village of Peremoha in the Kyiv region along an agreed "green" corridor. Seven people died, including one child."
