Incredible video game-style footage shows Ukrainian troops peppering enemy Russians with grenades from DRONES

INCREDIBLE video game-style footage shows the moment Ukrainian troops peppered the enemy with grenades dropped from drones.

One soldier fell to the ground while others fled when the surprise explosives dropped on an unsuspecting group of Russians in Ukraine.

Accompanied with dramatic music, the 43-second clip shows both hand-held grenades plummeting from a drone that's feet up in the sky.

The first bomb explodes the moment it hits the ground, knocking one enemy trooper fighting in Kharkiv Oblast to the ground and sending a second running off in panic.

A second grenade drops a few seconds later in a different location on a soldier manning a command post but he flees just in time before it explodes.

The impressive footage comes as more clips emerge of Russian soldiers and military kit being decimated by Ukraine in the battlefield.

Mad Vlad's forces lost 72 military vehicles and up to 1,000 men when they attempted to cross the river Donets in eastern Ukraine this week.

Two battalions are said to have been wiped out after the suicidal mission to rescue comrades and kit that got stranded on the wrong side of the Donets River in the first disastrous assault.

Hundreds of Russian vehicles and men were reportedly trapped after their attempt to cross the waterway on May 8 failed in spectacular fashion when their pontoon bridges were blown apart by Ukrainian artillery.

Meanwhile, brave Ukrainian fighters caught the jaw-dropping moment they wiped out a Russian vehicle as they repelled Putin's advance and a £4m tank was decimated in a matter of seconds by a stealthy missile, while the turret of a third was sent hurtling 250ft into the sky.

And the Russian military suffered another devastating blow on Friday when Ukraine reportedly struck and destroyed a naval vessel, which Moscow claims 'mysteriously caught on fire', just weeks after the Black Sea fleet flagship Moskva was sunk.

It caps off a humiliating week for Putin who was forced to scale down his Victory Day Parade by 35 per cent and cancel a long-awaited and menacing 'Z' shaped fly-by.

The ailing despot was expected to use the event to claim victory over Ukraine or issue a mass mobilisation - neither of which occurred.

And 78 days into the conflict, Putin is yet to achieve a single military objective he set out on invasion day on February 24.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said his men had pushed Russian troops out of the eastern city of Kharkiv and are beginning to encircle them in the strategic town of Izyum.

Brave Ukrainian defenders pushed the invaders out of the city and back beyond the Russian border.

The push means Ukrainian artillery can now reach the important town of Vovchansk, which contains a vital highway and rail line supplying Russian forces in the Donbas.

The UK's Ministry of Defence said Russian troops deployed around Kharkiv were "vulnerable to the mobile, and highly motivated, Ukrainian counter-attacking force".

"Despite Russia's success in encircling Kharkiv in the initial stages of the conflict, it has reportedly withdrawn units from the region to reorganise and replenish its forces following heavy losses," the ministry said in an update Thursday morning.

"Once reconstituted, these forces will likely deploy to the eastern bank of the Donets River, forming a blocking force to protect the western flank of Russia's main force concentration and main supply routes for operations in the vicinity of Izyum.

"The withdrawal of Russian forces from Kharkiv is a tactic recognition of Russia's inability to capture key Ukrainian cities where they expected limited resistance from the population."
