Ukrainian Leopard Tank Destroys Russian Armored Column in Video

A video released by Ukraine's 33rd Separate Mechanized Brigade shows a Leopard 2 tank destroying a column of Russian armored vehicles in Donetsk Oblast, highlighting the ongoing tank battles in the region. Despite significant losses, Russia continues to advance, while Ukraine faces challenges with its smaller tank fleet. The conflict, increasingly dominated by drones, sees both sides struggling with effective tank use.

Russian Disinformation Campaign Uses Tank Videos to Mislead Public

The Russian Ministry of Defense has released a video showing a German-made Leopard 2 main battle tank and U.S.-made M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles that it says were captured by its forces in Ukraine. The footage provides us with our closest yet look at examples of these vehicles lost in the recent counteroffensive, with the scene showing the aftermath of the failed breaching operation last week. Ukrainian forces abandoned a single Leopard 2A6, four Bradleys (three of which were damaged), and one BMR-2 mine-clearing tank after encountering a well-prepared Russian minefield.

Military experts and analysts suggest that the vehicle could be an abandoned farm equipment or a tractor. The video also includes an operator saying "Let's test on this," which is not something a warfighter would say about targeting a top-tier tank.
