Russian forces have allegedly used catastrophic thermobaric warheads to blast Ukrainian positions - and the defending military is now calling for NATO to urgently supply it with similar weapons.
The Ukrainian Ministry of Defence (MoD) said the Russians used a TOS-1 multiple rocket launcher to strike at Ukrainian targets near Novomykhailivka in the eastern region of Donetsk Oblast.
The horrendous 30-barrel or 24-barrel multiple rocket launcher is capable of firing thermobaric warheads, a type of explosive that uses oxygen in the surrounding area to generate a high-temperature blast.
