Moment Ukrainian gunners fire missile at unaware Russian troops

Drone footage appears to show the moment a group of Russian soldiers get blown up in an explosion as they are struck by Ukrainian gunfire.

The footage appears to show four soldiers carrying blankets and mattresses while moving through the ruins of a residential area.

Moments later, the soldiers disappear in a thick pummel of smoke as they get hit by Ukrainian gunners with a single - and seemingly deadly - shot.

The images were obtained by Newsflash from the 57th Otaman Kost Hordiienko Separate Motorised Infantry Brigade on 31st December, along with a statement: "The year 2022 ends. Not easy for every Ukrainian.

"But we not only withstood but also laid the foundations of our victory."
