Ukraine missile destroys flamethrower system<\/h3>\n

Ukraine has decimated a Russian heavy flamethrower causing a “magnificent fireworks display” using US supplied missiles, a video shared by the Ukraine Security Service has shown.<\/p>\n

Plumes of smoke could be seen for miles as a number of fireballs were seen intermittently whizzing into the air from the burning wreckage in the Zaporizhzia region of eastern Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Ukraine intelligence officers spotted a Russian Solntsepyok heavy flamethrower system during a reconnaissance mission.<\/p>\n

They then worked with the army to coordinate an artillery strike on the weapon using a HIMARS rocket, a Zelensky government advisor has said.<\/p>\n

The now-obliterated machine, or TOS-1A, is said to be the “pride of the Russian military industry complex” and is used to clear out buildings, battlefield fortifications and bunkers, charring those inside.<\/p>\n

It’s also known to be effective against light-armoured vehicles.<\/p>\n

Confirming the strike, Advisor to the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine, Anton Gerashchenko, wrote: “The SSU put HIMARS on to the Russian Solntsepyok MLRS position: its detonation resulted in a magnificent fireworks display.<\/p>\n

“During the reconnaissance, the SSU Zaporizhzhia Department spotted the position of a heavy flamethrower system Solntsepyok, which is the ‘pride’ of the Russian military-industrial complex.<\/p>\n

“It was supposed to strike at the positions of the Ukrainian military, who are conducting a counteroffensive in this area. But thanks to the coordination of the Security Service and the Armed Forces artillery, the TOS-1A Solntsepyok was destroyed along with its crew and full ammunition.”<\/p>\n

The US has supplied more than 20 HIMARS launches since the White House announced it would provide the weapons in June as part of a $700million (\u00a3575million) military aid package.<\/p>\n

The rockets have recently also been used to take out Russian targets in the Kherson region, including Russia’s Predel-E coastal radar system.<\/p>\n

It comes as Zelensky has been trying to persuade some sceptical politicians in the West to continue supporting Ukraine with vast military supplies.<\/p>\n

The warring leader recently visited Washington for the second time in nine months after the republican lawmakers started to question how much military aid the US could give.<\/p>\n
