Dramatic moment entire Russian tank column obliterated by hero Ukrainians with charred remains left scattered on road

THIS is the dramatic moment an entire Russian tank column was obliterated by hero Ukrainians.

The charred remains of the armoured vehicles were left scattered on the road after another successful ambush of Vladimir Putin's men.

The surprise attack in the east of the country comes as a series of Russian tanks and hideouts were struck by Ukraine.

Troops from the Ukrainian 54th Mechanized Brigade reportedly targeted the terrifying column of tanks with UAV corrected artillery.

They destroyed the Russian convoy in just a matter of minutes with a series of devastating strikes from hundreds of feet in the air.

Incredible footage shows the combat vehicles being taken out one by one in Donetsk - reportedly forcing any surviving soldiers to withdraw.

The tanks exploded into fireballs, leaving the narrow country road littered with scraps of the vehicles.

Battle group K-2 of the Ukrainian squadron, who are said to be responsible, said in a statement: "Battle group K-2 is back!

"For a long time, we were very busy with our work and could not please you with the destruction of the Russian.

"Yes, we have gathered enough material and are back on social media!

"So, we offer you a short film about the ‘stick’, in the literal sense, of love for our brothers.

"Somewhere in the Donetsk region, two occupying tanks were destroyed and several more left on fire."

The victorious unit added: "Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the Armed Forces!"

It comes after footage emerged of a Ukrainian fighter using a British-made missile to blast a Russian drone - before flipping the bird at it.

Video shows a soldier launching the Starstreak missile toward the Russian Orion drone as his fellow soldiers cheer while he shoots down the device.

The troop can also be seen celebrating while extending his middle finger toward the sky.

The clip was shared by soldier Yuriy Kochevenko who thanked Britain for the missile system and said that Ukraine uses the "support of allies effectively".

The General Staff of Ukraine's Armed Forces earlier announced that Ukrainian fighters shot down another Russian Orlan-10 drone with the Starstreak missile system.

The post reads: "In Kharkiv region, the air defense unit of a separate airborne assault brigade with British-made MANPADS 'Starstreak' successfully destroyed another Russian UAV 'Orlan-10'."

The longer-range missile can strike targets up to 2.5km away.

Earlier this month Ukraine used the British missile for the first time, targeting a Russian helicopter.

A dramatic clip showed the moment the Mi-28N was hit by the Starstreak in the Luhansk region of eastern Ukraine.

Meanwhile, other footage shows Ukrainian soldiers attacking Russian tanks as Putin's forces run for their lives.
