This is the moment Ukrainian soldiers destroy an enemy tank with a British Javelin rocket launcher.
The video was filmed by the 30th Mechanized Brigade, named after Prince Konstanty Ostrogski, a formation of the Ukrainian Ground Forces, in an unspecified region of the beset country.
The brigade joked that they are โon safariโ until the Russian invaders leave their land.
Land forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine said on May 8: โTop work from the soldiers 30th Mechanized Brigade, Prince Konstanty Ostrogski, with a Javelin on an enemy tank.
โThe Ukrainian safari continues until the enemy disappears from Ukrainian land!โ
Russian troops invaded Ukraine on 24th February in what the Kremlin is now calling a โspecial military operationโ to โprotect Donbassโ. Today marks the 75th day of the campaign.
From 24th February to 9th May, the total combat losses of Russian troops stand at around 25,650 personnel, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The Ukrainian military also claims that Russia has lost 1,145 tanks, 2,764 armored fighting vehicles, 513 artillery systems, 185 multiple launch rocket systems, 87 anti-aircraft systems, 199 warplanes, 158 helicopters, 1,970 motor vehicles and fuel tankers, 12 vessels, 377 tactical unmanned aerial vehicles, 41 units of special equipment and 94 cruise missiles.

The update comes as Vladimir Putin addresses a huge military parade in Red Square in Moscow on Victory Day.
The annual event commemorates the defeat of Nazi Germany at the hands of the Soviet Union in World War II.
The Russian President used his speech to claim Russian troops in eastern Ukraine were โdefending the motherlandโ.
He also said the โspecial military operationโ in Ukraine was necessary and was provoked by the West.
However, he did not make any major announcement concerning the invasion, as many had speculated.

Some 65,000 personnel, 2,400 items of military hardware and over 400 aircraft are taking part in todayโs parades, which are taking place across 28 Russian cities.
But Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said yesterday in his own Victory Day speech that Russia was repeating Nazi atrocities.
He also denounced heavy shelling carried out by Russia in eastern Ukraine and said a strike on a school building turned shelter in Luhansk Oblast killed 60.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has called on Putin to end the invasion of Ukraine immediately.
