This is the moment Ukrainian forces blew up a minibus used by the Russians to transport troops.

The footage shows the Russian vehicle being hit and exploding, with black smoke rising into the air as it burns.

The images were obtained from Colonel General Oleksandr Stanislavovych Syrskyi, Commander of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Wednesday, August 9, saying: 'The 63rd OMBr destroys the minibus that the Russians used to transport their personnel. Good job.'

Russia invaded Ukraine on February 24, 2022 in what the Kremlin is still calling a 'special military operation.'

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that between February 24, 2022 and August 10, 2023, Russia had lost some 252,200 personnel, 4,278 tanks, 8,303 armored combat vehicles, 5,028 artillery units, 711 multiple launch rocket systems, 469 air defense systems, 315 warplanes, 313 helicopters, 4,179 drones, 1,377 cruise missiles, 18 warships, 7,495 motor vehicles and fuel tankers, and 746 units of special equipment.

Russia has claimed that its casualties have been much lower but provides infrequent updates on its latest figures.
