Ukrainian tank destroys Russian armoured personnel carrier in a single shot

This is the incredible moment a Ukrainian tank fires through a demolished building to take out a Russian armoured personnel carrier on the other side in a single shot.

The images reportedly show the Ukrainian tank moving up the street in a war-ravaged city before it suddenly opens fire on a stationary Russian military vehicle, hitting it and destroying it in one shot.

The shell even passes through the partially destroyed building that stands between the Ukrainian tank and the Russian military vehicle, reportedly an armoured personnel carrier. A small cloud of dust can be seen being dislodged from the building as the ordnance fired by the Ukrainian military vehicle passes through it before hitting its target.

Newsflash obtained the images and a statement from the National Guard of Ukraine on Monday afternoon (18th April).

They said: "The city in the Luhansk region was destroyed by constant airstrikes and enemy artillery shelling.

"Our soldiers burn enemy equipment with unrealistic efforts. It looks epic. Victory will be ours. Thank you to the Rapid Response Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine. Let our forces be your forces!"

Newsflash has not been able to independently verify the images or where exactly they were filmed but Ukrainian officials have said that fighting in eastern Ukraine is intensifying. The city of Luhansk is the capital of the Luhanks Oblast region, in eastern Ukraine.

The Luhansk People's Republic is a self-proclaimed breakaway state within Ukraine that is located in Luhansk Oblast, in the Donbas region. Russia invaded Ukraine on Thursday, 24th February after recognising the Donetsk and Luhansk areas as “people’s republics”.
