The devastating attack was launched after pilots spotted a convoy of hundreds of vehicles it says were destined for Turkey, which Russia claims is a route the terrorist organisation is using to sell the commodity to raise money for its feared caliphate, as well as attacks on the West.

It came as one of Vladimir Putin's top officials said nearly 12,000 tankers on either side of the Syrian/Turkey border were seen on a recent mission.

In the last week, claims Moscow, 17 ISIS convoys have been destroyed in Russian airstrikes.

The latest video, released by the Russian defence ministry, shows the tankers bunched together as they make their way along the road.

They are then blasted by the fighter jet.
