If the information is confirmed, this will be the first time an Abrams tank has been destroyed since the beginning of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. A few days ago, Ukrainian authorities reported for the first time the use of such equipment in combat. In October 2023, it was reported that Washington transferred 31 such tanks to Kyiv.
Putin’s spokesman, Peskov, said that “Abrams tanks will burn just like other tanks, as the Russian military has said.” The Ukrainian army did not comment on the information.
