US-made Abrams tanks arrive in Ukraine: Zelenskiy

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy, US-made Abrams tanks have landed in the country. “Good news from Rustem Umerov, minister of defence.

US-made tanks arrive in Ukraine: He said on the Telegram messaging app, “Abrams are already in Ukraine and are getting ready to reinforce our brigades.

He made no mention of the number of arriving tanks.

Up until Washington ultimately offered more than 30 of them in January, the jet-powered American tanks were a priority request from Ukraine. Numerous Leopards and Challengers produced in Britain as well as Germany have already been provided by European nations.

The delivery occurs over four months into Ukraine’s major offensive to retake land that Russia has captured.

While Kyiv claims that its recent gains in villages and other land have strengthened its position, it has not yet succeeded in forcing a significant Russian retreat, as it did three times last year.

The Ukrainian onslaught, according to Moscow, has already failed.

“I appreciate that our allies kept their end of the bargain! We are expanding our supply geography and seeking for new contracts, Zelenskiy said.

The first American Abrams tanks would be shipped to Ukraine this week, US Vice President Joe Biden announced last week.
