Russia’s Steel Horse depot in Oryol has been a constant marked zone in the ongoing conflict for the Ukrainians.
The giant facility has already been hit three separate times in the past with the latest attack having apocalyptic visual results.
Footage from overnight shows the moment a bright orange flash of light erupts over the depot.
Vlad’s air defences quickly scrambled to try to defend the strategic facility but it was set ablaze in the blast.
The Governor of Oryol region, Andrey Klychkov, warned his residents of a “massive enemy UAV attack” moments before the depot was hit.
He urged everyone to “please remain calm” as drones continued to be flown over the area.
He is yet to confirm any casualties or if anyone was injured in the coordinated strikes.
Russia claimed to have shot down 20 drones over the Oryol region in total.
Despite the footage clearly showing one of the drones had found its target, Putin’s cronies in the defence ministry said they stopped the UAVs entirely.
They said: ”Last night an attempt by the Kyiv regime to carry out a terrorist attack using unmanned aerial vehicles against targets on the territory of the Russian Federation was stopped.”
Putin also confirmed the attacks will only bring more “destruction” to Ukraine.
He added: “Whoever, and however much they try to destroy, they will face many times more destruction themselves and will regret what they are trying to do in our country.”
The Steel Horse supplies oil to Vlad’s armed forces and also links to the Druzhba pipeline which helps filter Russian oil into Europe.
Only a week ago it was also hit with a successful strike leaving a roaring fire burning on for several days.
Footage showed huge orange flames crash through the night sky as thick black plumes of smoke billowed.
A massive white flash was also captured in the video as the strike ripped through the oil site.
Over the weekend, Ukraine has been unleashing hoards of drone strikes on their enemy.
Footage shows a deadly drone flying into the 37-floor and 400ft Azure skies residential tower before erupting into flames.
Elsewhere, a Ukrainian dragon drone spewed flesh-melting thermite onto a cowering Russian bunker.
The 2,500C mixture pours out of the drone at the entrance of the hideout before the craft is consumed by fire.
Anyone caught underneath the iron oxide and aluminium combination would be burned to death.
Putin hit back as he fired a terrifying wave of hypersonic missiles in a chilling revenge strike.
The attack targeted civilian areas in the capital Kyiv with deadly destruction also left across multiple districts.
The attack was made up of air-launched Kinzhal, or Dagger, hypersonic missiles and Iskander/KN-23 ballistic missiles.
It was seen as Putin’s revenge for the assassination of the dictator’s top nuclear defence general in Moscow on Tuesday.
