A BRIT-led team of international volunteers blasted a Russian position with a Javelin anti-tank missile on Ukraine’s front line.
The daredevil squad, led by ex-Para Daniel Burke, crept into no-man’s land in occupied Kherson province to launch the rocket attack.
Their unit, known as the Dark Angels, began the commando-style raid after troops from Ukraine’s 28th Brigade gave them an £80,000 fire-and-forget missile.
Body cam footage shot by fellow Brit fighter Sam Newey — a student from Birmingham with no previous military experience — shows the four-man team creeping up to a ridge line to fire the US-made guided weapon.
Britain has given Ukraine some 200 Javelin missiles which have a maximum range of 2.5km. The US donated thousands more.
The Sun met the volunteers at their bunker HQ in a bomb-blitzed frontline village.
The highest ranking volunteer was a former US Marine sergeant, Chris.
Others include a German-born bartender, British ex-con Mark Ayres, 49, and a US gun enthusiast, Justin, 29, who fought in Afghanistan.
Burke formed the Dark Angels to deliver humanitarian aid and provide medical and military training.
His volunteers are all unpaid — and laugh off Russian claims they are far-right foreign mercenaries.

Thank you, International Volunteers!
Thanks to the West for the "hardware": send more! To kill each and every russofascist occupant. Each and every! "Your" Afghanistan taught you nothing. Welcome to the hell of the "Ukrainistan".
Not enough ruzzkie mothers are crying. Crank it up, Ukraine 🇺🇦
Putler kaput!
Слава Україні!
British mercenaries shouldn't be involved. Not a NATO country & we are not in the EU. We know who's going to win. It's the everyday people in Ukraine that loose everything they would have been better off with the Russians securing their country than total destruction.
It must be disheartening for soldiers to be murdering others when they know very well there is no justice to their position. The Russians have never done a thing to us. The whole problem is US imperialist hype, and has been all along.
Go Dark Angels! Make them pay mightily.
The Bloody British stick their nose in every country's internal affair. Even America was once a British colony.
Doggo better get a medal too.
Hello. Take out Russian submarines. The US can locate then, and the Ukraine Air Force can torpedo them. A no brainer. Watt are they waiting for? The US follows their subs alll the time and know where they are. Just do it.
Dark Angels! Man I hope they are 40k fans and fighting for the Emperor! 😁
Bravo 🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺 Rusia
0:31 clearly that dude would rather be elsewhere Surfing ! But He is defending …. Awesome
This is so staged, all foreign fighters, this is not your responsibility, and anyone stepping foot on the soil to fight on behalf of the military of another sovereign state takes risk of loosing their natural born citizenship. Read your passports people, NATO and EU are evil. They are sending elite support to die because they are just that desperate to keep control of Ukraine for themselves and their money laundering and corruption. It was never supposed to be in NATO, it is supposed to be the place foreign dignitaries Iike Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi & Mitt Romney put their kids on boards of oil and gas companies to get kick backs and laundering their dirty deeds. DoD confirmed 26 plus bio-weapons labs, Ukraine is NWO ground zero. Wake up!
Each day we see suns videos, that Ukraine destroys huge part of the Russian army, but the fact is that more and more cities are becoming under Russian control (not fan of that). Point is that the sun is a good example of dictated media, which shows only the one side of the story. It is sad, but we lost our free media. Thee is no way getting it back.
You know they arrived in drop pods, death to the false emperor
4 of 'em are ni Donetsk prison and they're be dead soon. Keep juming!😀
The British have to fight because the ukraines are too busy begging for money to fight.
Ukraina must be the winner in this war..
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
From Norway
seems from the text in the title that british soldiers are now involved in this, implying NATO would be involved – something that is being very intentionally avoided. Please use more accurate descriptions of the truth in your titles, not just something that'll get views.
they need more than 1 missile
and then when these rats get caught they turn into aid workers
Britain u
Is doing good good job,provoking russia for war ,britain likes a taste of russian sarmat missiles with nuclear bomb drop where the whole of britain will be powdered and no humans will be able to live in britain for 500 yrs,keep it up britain.invite war with russia
Russia hasn't changed from the CCCP times: Their collective self-hatred and the self-destructive streak in the Russian identity leads to a brutal disregard of all human life…
God bless these volunteers.
I held an NLAW yesterday. A great piece of portable kit. Hope we get more of these along with the Javelins out there and put to good use.
This is what Russia will inherient for ever. Suck that pukeup.
Россию-невозможно-победить🇷🇺💪🇰🇬

Lies lies and more lies. They blasted a tree for failed propaganda
Dark Angels ….sounds gay lol
My view of the Ukraine war is that the United States, British, and Israel are all joint forces against Russia by using Ukrainians as a proxy military front against Russia for various reasons on the global stage; the ordinary people are oblivious to the reality. The bigger picture, As they say, at the end of the day, is Ukraine that has been carved up, not the United States or the UK.
lies, lies, and only lies. shame on you.
The Russians are launching their kalibr cruise missiles from the warships in the black sea fleet. Support the Ukrainian army. Let's destroy the enemy's black sea fleet. God save the queen. God save Ukraine..🇺🇦❤🇬🇧

While Russian forces are using their weapons on civilian targets, the Ukrainian forces are after Russian assets.
That's why Russa will lose
