Russia says it destroyed 45 Ukraine drones overnight.

Plumes of smoke can be seen billowing into the sky in the attack.

Other footage shows flashes of light followed by explosions.

It comes as Kyiv's forces are continuing to push into Russia's Kursk region.

Fierce fighting has taken place in Kursk since Ukraine's brave troops launched an attack on August 6.

Kyiv's forces have been pushing into villages across the Russian border ever since amid the first-ever invasion on Russian soil since World War Two.

One of the latest attacks saw troops launch a devastating assault on a Russian hideout.

Footage shows relentless gunfire, plumes of smoke and fires erupting across a small village as Ukraine's armed forces target buildings used by Putin's men.

Video shows Ukraine's 95th Air Assault Brigade using Marder BMP tanks to launch precision strikes at Russian buildings - many of which are already up in flames.

The gunfire sends sparks flying across the settlement of Mala Loknya in the Suzhan district.

A statement posted alongside the footage from the Armed Forces of Ukraine says: "The opponent suffered significant losses in manpower, technology and other material resources."

Since the mini-invasion got underway heart-stopping clips have shown Ukrainian fighters gaining ground on Putin's land.

One clip shows Ukraine's special forces packed in Humvees blasting their way into Russia.

Soldiers sitting atop the armoured vehicles can be seen using rocket launchers to obliterate enemy targets.

The incredible footage comes just days after crack Ukrainian troops blitzed a £15million Russian Ka-52 attack helicopter out of the sky amid Kyiv's daring Kursk siege.

Dramatic footage shows the "alligator" military chopper bursting into flames after it was shot down by Kyiv's anti-aircraft missile system.

A portable surface-to-air rocket was used down the helicopter which had been targeting Ukrainian troops after they began their cross-border incursion.
