Amazing footage shows a group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine laughing around in the village of Guevo in the war-torn Russian region of Kursk.
One of the soldiers can be seen carrying a flag of Ukraine up to a building as he proudly hands it over to his pal who is stood up on a wall.
He then climbs as high up the wall as possible before planting the flag into a holster attached to the building.
A Russian flag can be seen dumped on the floor to make room for the Ukrainian flag.
The flag is repeatedly stamped into the dirt as the Ukrainian fighters celebrate their new dominant position.
The man filming the historic moment can be seen smiling and laughing with his fellow troops once the flag is seen flying in the air.
Thousands of Ukrainian soldiers have been storming through the Russian borders since the mini invasion kicked off on Tuesday in the first invasion of Russia since World War 2.
President Volodymyr Zelensky’s men went on the offensive with a barrage of calculated strikes as they pushed back against Vlad’s army after they steamed into Ukraine in February 2022.
They are said to have killed hundreds of Russian soldiers, blitzed a key airfield, and spread chaos in Putin’s own backyard.
Officials, including the president, have vowed to keep up the offensive for as long as they can.
Speaking to his nation on Saturday, Zelensky declared he would “restore justice” after the Russian invasion two years ago.
He said in a nightly address: “Today, I received several reports from Commander-in-Chief Syrskyi regarding the front lines and our actions to push the war onto the aggressor’s territory.
“Ukraine is proving that it can indeed restore justice and ensure the necessary pressure on the aggressor.”
Ukraine’s army chief Oleksandr Syrskyi posted a defiant message on Telegram earlier today saying: “We continue the operation!”
It comes as Ukraine has continued its blitz of Kursk.
Their latest strike saw Kursk city pounded by a wave of kamikaze drones and Tochka-U tactical missiles overnight.
A residential building was seen up in flames following one of the blasts with footage showing a car on fire and plumes of smoke billowing into the sky.
Fire crews watched on as dozens were reportedly injured after Russia downed one of the four missiles.
Further reports of regional power outages and even a giant fireball blast on a gas rig in the Black Sea have also plagued Putin’s army.

Putin has faced further humiliation after footage of his men surrendering to Ukraine in recent days was released.
Dozens of his troops were forced to drop to their knees and wave white flags in the embarrassing set of videos.
Three rows of captives were made to say “Glory to Ukraine” to a gun-wielding soldier before they were taken away.
In a separate clip, nine FSB security service officers were seen walking together in a line as they gave themselves up to Ukrainian troops.
Shocking video shows some of the officers waving white flags as others hold up their hands in defeat.
Russia’s war machine has been hellbent on preventing Kyiv from gaining a further foothold in Kursk.
Moscow launched a massive “counter-terror operation” in three regions on Saturday.
The defence ministry announced a major deployment of their military capabilities over to the frontlines.
In a statement to local media they said Russia is moving “multiple rocket launchers, towed artillery guns, tanks transported on trawls, heavy tracked vehicles and Ural and Kamaz trucks”.
They are being sent to defend Kursk’s Sudzhansky District which has been at the heart of Ukrainian attacks since Tuesday morning.
Since the emergency deployment of troops the ministry claim to have now prevented Ukraine from advancing any further.
The Russian army has been caught using a thermobaric bomb to suffocate its targets and dropping FAB-3000 bombs, say reports.
But Putin’s claims of halting the Ukrainian march have been largely dismissed with Russia coming under fire with further attacks over the weekend.
Flocks of Kursk residents have also now been ordered to evacuate the region.
At least 76,000 have already left so far with Russian authorities setting up temporary accommodation in eight regions – with up to 60 shelters.
More are expected to flee in the coming days as the fighting rages on.
Locals have been seen flocking out of the blitzed region on buses, trains and cars after repeated strikes in the last few days.
