A missile has been captured on video wiping out a rubbish bin as it misses a Ukrainian woman walking down the street by inches amid Russian airstrikes.
The incident reportedly took place in the north-eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, one of the spots hit by missiles on Sunday night.
The clip captures the woman walking across a road holding what appears to be two bags of shopping, before the missile hits the street ahead of her, causing a fiery explosion and filling the scene with plumes of dark grey smoke.
She appears to stop in her tracks, crouching over before popping her head up to see if the carnage is over.
A second small explosion to her left causes another burst of flames and a second plume of smoke, covering what was once a rubbish bin.
Incredibly, the woman gets up and walks away just seconds later.
Two other people in the background can also be seen narrowly avoiding being hit by the explosion, which was reportedly caused by Russian attacks.
The footage, which appears to be a clip from a CCTV reel, was shared by the Ukrainian Ministry of Defence with the caption: "Kharkiv. Two months ago, no one in Ukraine could have imagined something like this.
"Now it is becoming commonplace for many Ukrainians."
The video was also shared by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The clip showed a "strike on a strategic military trash can", the group said.
According to Ukrainian authorities, no one was killed in the footage.
Publication of the chilling video comes as fighting in Ukraine shifts to the east of the country, The Sun reports.
There have been reports of civilian fatalities overnight, with authorities reporting that six people have so far died and 13 more injured in Kharkiv alone.
The victims were said to have included a child.
Russia has intensified shelling across Ukraine in recent days, as it enters a new phase of the war with a ramped up bid to achieve its goals.
Latest attacks by Russia have focused on major cities including Kyiv and Lviv.
Six people have reportedly been killed in Kviv on Monday following a missile strike, which has left eight more people wounded.
The Kremlin has come under huge pressure to step up its military advances, following the humiliating sinking of the Moskva flagship in the Black Sea.
Vladimir Putin appointed a new general, Aleksandr Dvornikov - the so-called Butcher of Syria - a move the UK Ministry of Defence has described as an “attempt to centralise command and control”.
