Video footage shows a Russian military convoy traveling over one of the main roads leading to Kyiv.
Suddenly, an anti-armor missile launched from one side of the road, directly hitting a tank.
Immediately, the Russian soldiers fled to the sides of the road and did what remained inside the military vehicles in the column, as they withdrew those vehicles in anticipation of new attacks.

The Ukrainian army said that the attack also destroyed a troop carrier that was in the convoy, and the moment of the destruction of that vehicle was not shown, but other pictures and videos taken at a later time showed that.
It seems that the missiles were launched from behind the trees and caught the Russian soldiers by surprise.
This is the second dramatic footage of its kind, within 3 days, as Kyiv filmed the moments of targeting a Russian military convoy with a series of missiles, which led to the injury of at least 6 vehicles.
Russia began its war in Ukraine on February 24, with a massive bombing campaign targeting mainly the air and air defense forces.
On the next day, Russian ground forces rushed in multiple directions into Ukraine, especially in the east, south and north, i.e. the areas bordering Russia.
The Russian combat tactic relied on large forces, besieging major cities and using large firepower, while the Ukrainian tactic relied on the use of anti-armor missiles and drones, in order to inflict the greatest losses among the Russian forces.
