Ukraine has not let up on its strikes on Russian infrastructure as they hope to cripple Vladimir Putin’s war machine.

The latest drone strikes appear to have hit Russian cargo lorries carrying supplies to the frontlines of occupied Crimea.

One lorry, engulfed in a ball of flames, tries to speed away from the attack caught on camera posted on Wednesday.

At least three trucks were destroyed in the strike which was caught on camera by passing motorists.

Russian Telegram say Ukrainian medium-range drones have intensified operations in recent weeks, targeting supply traffic and disrupting logistics to the front.

Ukrainian forces have turned the crucial R-280 land corridor to occupied Crimea into a hunting zone, picking off military trucks with ease and turning the area into a graveyard.

Last night Kyiv launched a marine drone strike on an oil tanker passing Sochi – Russia’s playground for the rich and famous spewing smoke on the resort.

It came after three days of mourning have been declared in Pryluky, Chernihiv region, from October 7 to 9 for those killed in the Russian missile strike on an apartment building on October 7.

President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Russia’s continued missile strikes are a deliberate choice to use terror after 18 Ukrainians were killed, four of them children: Oleksandr, Kyrylo, and Serhii, who were only one year old, and eight-year-old Maksym.

Expressing his condolences, he said: ‘The Russians know very well that they are striking ordinary cities, ordinary life. And the continued use of missiles against Ukraine, against our people, our children, is an absolutely deliberate choice of terror.

‘This is what Moscow chooses – despite all our efforts with partners to bring peace closer. And this is a clear reason why more pressure on Russia is needed and why Ukraine needs more defence packages. It is important that leaders understand this. It is important that the world not remain silent today,’ he said.
