UKRAINE has blown up a massive Russian train carrying £3.2m worth of oil in a sabotage attack with missiles and drones.
Vladimir Putin’s train with 40 wagons of liquid cargo was travelling through the occupied Zaporizhzhia region at the time.

It was hit first by a bomb planted on the tracks by Ukraine’s top secret military intelligence GRU.
The train was then hit in a precision strike by US-supplied HIMARS missiles, which destroyed the locomotive and the rear wagons.
Ukrainian drones then targeted the rest of the train destroying the rest of the oil cargo.
Footage released by Ukraine’s spies showed the railway wreck in a massive blaze on the tracks following the blitz.
Not only did Ukraine destroy an important Russian train, but it has blocked a key rail line Russia had been using.
The successful strike on the oil train is one of a number of new sabotage strikes Ukraine has conducted against barbaric Putin.
Kyiv’s military intelligence agency GRU also released footage showing another strike against a bridge.
A missile could be seen landing on the span which then collapses, rendering the railway in the Ulyanovsk region, some 440 miles east of Moscow, useless.
A spokesperson for the GRU said: “The explosion occurred in the railway district of Ulyanovsk, on a line near the Sviyaga River, a few kilometres from the local locomotive depot and the Ulyanovsk Motor Plant.
“The process of weakening the logistics facilities that Russia uses to wage a genocidal war against Ukraine continues.”
In another strike, three more trains and a warplane were hit on December 13.
A Ukrainian saboteur lit fires inside the the cabin of the locomotives rendering them useless as they sat in the Krasnodar yard.
Another clip showed the jet on fire as it sat on a snowy runway.
Krasnodar is inside Russia and is linked to occupied Crimea by Putin’s £3 billion road and rail bridge.
Ukraine has used sabotage to strike deep inside Russia and weaken Putin at critical junctures.
One notorious prison torture boss was recently blown up with his car exploding into a giant fireball.
The daring car bomb blast killed Sergey Yevsyukov – the ex-head of the Olenivka jail where hundreds of Ukrainian PoWs have reportedly been beaten and killed.
The death of Yevsyukov comes weeks after Russian naval commander Captain Valery Trankovsky was also blown up in a car bombing.
