CNN verified the authenticity of the video, which was released on Thursday.

The video is a compilation of a series of drone footage showing five military vehicles initially heading east on a road in eastern Kreminnaya.

Later, the convoy can be seen returning to Staraya Krasnianka and returning to Kreminnaya. As the convoy approaches the railway line, it moves through a wooded area near Staraya Krasnianka.

Then they become the target of a volley of Ukrainian missiles, and new explosions are visible. Ammunition carried by vehicles explodes as a result of the fire. Later, the burnt remains of the convoy can be seen.

In recent weeks, Ukrainian troops have repeatedly struck Russian positions in the city of Kreminna, located west of Severodonetsk.
