Ukrainians score jack-in-the-box effect as turret is blown off Russian tank and falls from sky

This footage appears to show a turret falling from the sky amid a plume of black smoke after it was blown clean off a Russian tank in what is known as a jack-in-the-box effect.

The images were released from the Ukrainian Operational Command 'North', on Wednesday, July 6, along with a statement saying: 'Somewhere in the steppes of Donbas, an enemy tank met soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and 'tore off its turret' out of joy. This is such a short fairy tale.'
