A UKRAINIAN sniper is believed to have obliterated the world record for the longest confirmed kill shot in history.

The talented gunman reportedly managed to eliminate two Russian soldiers from over two-and-a-half miles (13,123ft) away with a single bullet.

The historic shot was fired on August 14 and came from a 14.5mm Alligator sniper rifle often used by snipers in the Ukraine war.

A bullet burst through a glass window where the troops were positioned before hitting Vladimir Putin’s men.

Dramatic footage captured the incredible moment with the sniper seen firing several rounds alongside his spotter before hitting the targets.

The clip shows the distance the bullet travelled before a flash of light is seen as the bullet makes its impact.

Artificial intelligence also played a pivotal role as it worked in tandem with a drone reconnaissance complex to locate the cowering soldiers.

The record-breaking snipe took place on the Pokrovsk–Myrnohrad defensive line which has been valiantly defended by Ukraine’s Donetsk operational group.

Moscow is said to have deployed around 110,000 troops by in the region to try and breach Ukrainian defensive lines.

The Ukrainian military has confirmed the area is still under their control as of Friday.

The mission was carried out by sniper platoon Pryvyd – known as the Ghost unit – which comprises of eight sniper units from Ukraine’s Ground Forces.

Pryvyd units have eliminated nearly 1,000 Russian troops in the region across the past 12 months alone, according to military reports.

The remarkable shot smashed the previous world record which was created by a fellow Ukrainian sniper.

Viacheslav Kovalskyi eliminated a Russian from over 2.3 miles away in 2023.

Prior to that the world record for a long-range sniper kill was 2.19 miles, made by a Canadian special operations sniper in Iraq in 2017.

Ukrainians have become specialist long-range snipers since war broke out in 2022.

As well as the two reported record breaking shots, a third sniper also boasts one of the most impressive feats.

A sniper reportedly took out two Russian troops with a single bullet while shooting five men in five minutes.

The shot was said to have been taken from nearly 4,000ft away and carried out by Ukraine‘s 3rd Special Purpose Regiment of the Special Operations Forces.
