This makeshift armour is ­fitted to what looks to be a US-made Humvee.

It was seen yesterday north of front line city Donetsk, where fierce fighting between President Volodymyr Zelensky’s Ukrainian military and invading Russian troops continues.

It is now almost completely deserted, with most residents fleeing the onslaught from Vladimir Putin’s war machine. 

Meanwhile, a giant paint plant in Yaroslavl, Russia — making special coatings for protection of military equipment — was pictured engulfed in flames yesterday following an attack by Ukraine.

Russia has also been bulking up its vehicles with the protective add-ons, so much so in some cases that it is impossible to tell what the vehicle even is. 

Last month, combat footage showed what observers identified as a Russian tank shielded by a large cage, significant amounts of netting, and some other material.

President Trump floated the idea of a territorial exchange as part of a potential deal, a proposal Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has firmly rejected.

He said: “There is nothing to talk about. This violates our Constitution.

“This is our territory, the territory of the people of Ukraine.”
