Video shows Ukraine’s 95th Air Assault Brigade using Marder BMP tanks to fire precision strikes at several buildings – many of which are already up in flames.

It comes as dramatic first-person footage shows Ukrainian special forces raiding Putin’s land using Humvees and obliterating Russian military positions.

Heart-stopping footage now shows how brave Ukrainian troops have been gaining ground on Putin‘s land.

The clip starts with Ukraine’s special forces packed in Humvees blasting their way into Russia.

Soldiers sitting atop the armoured vehicles can be seen using rocket launchers to obliterate enemy targets.

The incredible footage comes just days after crack Ukrainian troops blitzed a £15million Russian Ka-52 attack helicopter out of the sky amid Kyiv’s daring Kursk siege.

Dramatic footage shows the “alligator” military chopper bursting into flames after it was shot down by Kyiv’s anti-aircraft missile system.

A portable surface-to-air rocket was used down the helicopter which had been targeting Ukrainian troops after they began their cross-border incursion on August 6, 2024.

The chopper then plunged to the ground in a fireball crash inside Kursk near the village of Oleshnya.

Footage of the wreckage shows the obliterated aircraft after it was abandoned by the Russians.

Meanwhile, another footage caught the moment Kyiv’s forces destroyed a key bridge in Kursk in a massive blow to Putin’s war supply lines.

The bridge over the River Seym bursts into flames after a missile strike before collapsing.

Russian Telegram channels claimed it was hammered by US-supplied HIMARS missiles.

The bridge was a crucial supply route for Putin as it was near the Ukrainian border and crossed the Seym River next to the key town of Glushkovsko.

Its destruction “cut off” Putin’s troops within their own country and threatened a major Ukrainian victory as their army advanced.

On Thursday night, Ukraine sent a missile barrage at targets near the bridge linking Crimea to Russia.

Ukraine is reportedly seeking to clear the way for a direct strike against the crucial Kerch Bridge, with the Russians fortifying the area.

The £3billion bridge links Crimea to the Russian mainland and has been hit by Ukraine before.

The bridge, a major engineering feat, was Putin’s flagship project and the dictator opened the crossing in 2018.
