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.
Not only did Ukraine destroy an important Russian train, but it has blocked a key rail line Russia had been using.
Footage shows an explosion on a bridge in Russia’s Ulyanovsk region which Kyiv military intelligence agency GUR said has disrupted military transport operations by weakening its structure.
A spokesperson for the GUR 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.”
