Footage shows an airburst munition erupting over a pair of Russian supply trucks as they performed a short halt along a roadside. The proximity blast that occurs just above the ground results in a shower of destructive fragmentation, sure to take both unarmored vehicles out of action.

The munition was reported to be a HIMARS-fire guided rocket (GMLRS), but may have also been a precision 155mm Excalibur conventional artillery shell. The incident reportedly occurred on the left bank of Kherson in southern Ukraine.
