Defence Ministry reveals first video of British Challenger 2 tanks in Ukraine

Challenger 2 tanks have already started to drive on Ukrainian soil. The first video of the British fighting vehicles was published by Ukrainian Defence Minister Oleksii Reznikov.

Here's What We Know

On the previous day, the Ukrainian Defence Ministry published a photograph of the Challenger 2 and said that the tanks, along with the Marder, Stryker infantry fighting vehicles and Cougar armoured vehicles, had been handed over to the paratroopers. Already on 28 March, Minister Oleksiy Reznikov showed how the British tanks were riding in Ukraine. The defence minister stressed that the Challenger 2 would soon start carrying out combat missions.

It should be recalled that the UK has announced the provision of 14 Challenger 2 main battle tanks to Ukraine. Along with them the Armed Forces will receive shells that contain depleted uranium to increase armor-piercing effect.
