Ukraine's Battle-Ready Leopard Tanks Return from Poland

The first battle-damaged Ukrainian Leopard 2A4 tank has been repaired in Poland and is ready for combat. The tank, weighing 61 tons and manned by a four-person crew, is making its way back to Ukraine. The repair work on other tanks is also in progress. Ukraine has received 40 Leopard 2A4 tanks from various NATO countries, including Canada, Germany, Norway, Poland, and Spain. These tanks, along with other Western-style tanks donated by allies, are crucial for Ukraine's war effort against Russia. Despite suffering damage, the Western-style tanks are more robust and can be repaired and returned to the frontlines.

The Tank Troubles in Ukraine: A Compilation of Videos.

A video shared on social media shows an abandoned Leopard 2A4 tank, supplied to Ukraine by Germany, stuck in a ditch near the frontline in the Zaporizhzhia region. The tank is expected to add an extra dimension to battlefield capabilities of Kyiv's forces, which are conducting a counteroffensive aimed at recapturing Russian occupied territory. The video has not been independently verified, and it is unclear how the tank got stuck in the ditch. Ukraine has lost three Leopard 2A6s and one Leopard 2A4 since the counteroffensive started a week ago.
