Watch moment Ukrainians blow up £80MILLION Russian missile system using a drone as driver desperately tries to escape

THIS is the moment Ukraine blows up an £80m Russian missile system with a drone.

A craft targeted the expensive Buk-M3 air defense system, striking it with two bombs that resulted in an explosion and forced the driver to flee the burning wreck.

Kyiv’s stunning kills comes as Ukraine desperately defends as Russia seizes territory the size of two football fields every minute.

The clip, released by Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces, shows the drone chasing the system as it drives away.

Impressively, the drone hits the Buk-M3 as it is moving causing a huge explosion.

The drone then continues to give chase and hits it with a second bomb, this time causing it to stop.

The Russian driver then jumps out of the vehicle and rolls along the ground – as if he is on fire.

The November strike comes after Ukraine was able to destroy two Buk-M3 systems in October, according to Defense Express.

The Buk-M3 is a surface-to-air missile system that was developed by the Soviet Union and is still used by the Russia.

The long-range missiles are used to counter other missiles, aircraft, and drones.

The entire system can cost around £80m and it is a key component of Russia’s defence at the front.

Destroying the Buk-M3 is important for Ukraine as it wants its own missiles to be able to strike inside Russia unopposed.

Putin suffers ‘deadliest day’ with 2,000 soldiers lost as troops wade through fallen comrades

Russia is making gains taking Ukrainian land in the east at a rate of two football fields a minute.

But, the meat grinder is costing Vladimir Putin thousands of troops with the dictator sending 2,000 to their deaths on one day alone.

That figure from earlier this week marks Russia’s deadliest day of the war so far, beating the previous record set only days before.

Putin’s approach is miserably failing with over 738,000 Russian soldiers now dying under Vlad’s orders.

Russian forces have focused their blitz attacks around Kupiansk, in northeastern Kharkiv province, and Khurakove in southern Donbas.

UK Defence Secretary John Healey has warned the 600-mile frontline is now at the most unstable it has been since February 2022.

Putin called on his pals over in North Korea for extra support to fight back against a surging Ukraine earlier this year.

Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un handed over around 10,000 troops to be trained up by Russia before being deployed on the frontlines in Kursk.

The Kremlin has also been hard at work creating a new chilling hypersonic missile which Putin has already unleashed on Ukraine.

The feared “Oreshnik” has been described as far superior to any other weapon in Russia’s arsenal.

Putin has even claimed it can turn almost anything it hits into dust.

The despot has threatened to attack the West with the weapon “if necessary”.

The Kremlin is also said to have ordered the deadly 16,000mph Satan 2 to be battle-ready sparking fears of a major escalation in the war.

In recent days, Vlad’s forces have continued to gain ground inside Ukraine with several deadly strikes.

On Thursday, Ukraine was placed under red alert with civilians taking cover in bomb shelters and one million people plunged into darkness.

Russia mounted a second “massive” attack on the country’s energy infrastructure overnight with cruise missiles and kamikaze drones.

They now claim to have grabbed even more eastern territory in recent weeks – leaving Moscow in a strong position.

Putin’s chilling threat to the West

VLADIMIR Putin has issued a chilling threat to the West against American and British rockets being used by Ukraine to attack Russia.

The tyrant’s “response” comes after the Kremlin ramped up the aggression in its invasion of Ukraine as it expelled a UK diplomat.

Moscow’s military vowed a chilling “response” to fresh Ukrainian air attacks deep inside Russia using US-supplied ATACMS missiles.

Russia’s defence ministry posted a short but chilling threat on Telegram, writing: “Retaliatory actions are being prepared.”

This event occurred after Kyiv initiated the launch of long-range rockets for the first time on November 18, with approval from US President Joe Biden for Volodymyr Zelensky’s troops to engage in this manner.

Russia’s defence ministry said Ukraine had carried out fresh strikes, on 23 and 25 November, using the ATACMS rockets.

Two out of five missiles launched on Saturday damaged a Russian S-400 air defence system.

Two soldiers were wounded in the second attack which saw eight missiles launched at the Kursk-Vostochny airport, which is also a military airbase.

Russia’s defence ministry posted pictures of what it said were fragments of a ATACMS, showing large casings on the road.

The Ukrainian military also fired British Storm Shadow rockets, which are capable of dodging air defences, on 20 November.

The strike reportedly claimed the life of a high-ranking Russian military officer, Lt-Gen Valery Solodchuk, along with 500 North Korean troops who were deployed to support Putin’s forces.

This elicited a furious reaction from Moscow who retaliated by firing intercontinental ballistic rockets into several Ukrainian cities for the first time, on Thursday.

Putin previously threatened to continue unleashing his devastating ICBMs on Ukraine and already threatened to strike the UK and US “if necessary.”

The despot said he would not hold back from using the destructive “Oreshnik” hypersonic ballistic weapon, which hit the Ukrainian city of Dnipro.

Kyiv fears Russia may already have 10 of the terrifying weapons in its arsenal with Putin vowing to mass produce dozens more.
