Farmers seized a Russian missile system and reportedly set it alight in a field in Ukraine on March 1 in this clip sourced via Ukrainian media.

The villagers claimed the invading soldiers fled following the incident near the city of Bashtanka in the Mykolaiv Oblast region.

Dnipro city mayor Boris Filatov, 49, claimed that farmers seized and destroyed the Pantsir-C missile system vehicle and that it cost around 15 million USD (11.3 million GBP).

Russian President Vladimir Putin announced a ‘special military operation’ in Ukraine’s Donbas region last week. He said in a public address on February 24: ‘We decided to launch a special military action aimed at demilitarisation and denazification of Ukraine.’

Russia and Ukrainian officials began ceasefire talks on March 1 in the Republic of Belarus, a staunch Russian ally.
