Call of Duty-style footage shows Ukrainian soldier line up Russian tank before obliterating it in missile blitz

DRAMATIC Call Of Duty-style footage shows the moment a Ukrainian soldier obliterates a Russian tank using a guided missile.

The soldier can be seen carefully targeting the T-72B3 tank which eventually explodes after being hit from a short range.

The explosion sparks a blaze sending a cloud of thick black smoke to the sky.

Similar Call of Duty style videos have emerged with one showing Ukrainian troops blasting a Russian tank with a distinctive Z marking on it.

The clip, reportedly filmed in the notorious far-right Azov Regiment in Ukraine, shows an amphibious BTR-4 fire on two Russian vehicles in Mariupol, southern Ukraine.

In another video, Ukrainians can be seen attacking a Russian tank while Putin's forces are cowering behind it.

It comes as continuous fighting has taken a toll on Putin's forces with troops beginning to express anger and plummeting morale after the quick victory they were promised has not come.

Ukraine is now littered with the burnt-out wrecks of Russian tanks and armoured vehicles, charred remains of downed aircraft, and the dead bodies of soldiers - many of whom were teenage conscripts.

One soldier allegedly drove his tank into his commanding officer as he protested horrific losses among his comrades.

Colonel Yuri Medvedev was hospitalised with severe leg injuries after the reported incident.

A Russian taxi driver reportedly surrendered with a tank in return for £7,500 and Ukrainian citizenship.

Meanwhile, Ukrainian forces have reclaimed Trostianets, one of the first towns to fall, in another blow to Putin's war.

Russia's defeat is a significant victory, defence sources say - as it opens a route to the besieged city of Sumy.

It is also understood Ukraine has won back Husarivka.

The Russian President is believed to be facing defeat in Kyiv while Ukrainians have fought hard to reclaim Kherson.

Kherson was the first major city to be captured by Russian troops but Ukrainian forces have launched a heroic retaliation.

President Zelensky said his troops had delivered "powerful blows" to Moscow's forces around the capital and urged the Kremlin to negotiate an end to the bloody war.

It came as adviser to Ukraine's ministry of defence Markian Lubkivskyi predicted troops could take back southern port city Kherson today. 

Mr Lubkivskyi said: "I believe that today the city will be fully under the control of Ukrainian armed forces.

"We have finished in the last two days the operation in the Kyiv region so other armed forces are now focused on the southern part trying to get free Kherson and some other Ukrainian cities."

Moscow declared that the first stage of its campaign to “denazify and demilitarise” Ukraine was a success - and it'll now focus its efforts on breakaway province Donetsk.

President Joe Biden gave an emotional speech in Warsaw, Poland which finished with an unscripted addition that Putin "cannot remain in power".

Fighting in Ukraine continued over the weekend with Lviv, which is just 40 miles from the Polish border, being hit by four Russian rockets.
