Gave them tanks. Gave them money. Gave them missiles. Gave them jets. Next its troops.
Moscow = Putin
Oh, Starmer, loves a bit of war just like Blair…. What about promoting peace for the world
So now they're flipping the script what makes them different to Russia now
Its not invasion its a special military operation 😅
Don’t cry your crazy tears when bad things happen.
I paid towards these tanks I'm disgusted.
How about putting Britain & it's people first rather than getting involved in this oathrtic American War!! Little Bankrupt Britain needs yo stop playing the big nan & wasting tax payers cash!! RUSSIA CANNOT BE DEFEATED, DON'T POKE THE BEAR!!
we need to stop this madness
Zelensky was voted in by the people of Ukraine as a deterrent for war . He promised no wars…. Woops .
Why can't there be peace why do they have to invade Russia now… this war is disgusting and not fair to the rest of the world aswel as the people of these 2 countries 😢😢😢
Senseless promotion its not news. Ukraine are already stalling in Kursk. The west are weeks behind again!
plural? both of them?
Wait till Challenger 2s start flying in orbit bahahaha
British challenger tanks have been destroyed in Ukraine. That's why they don't send more. The Ukraine offensive in Kursk has been halted. And in rhe Donbas, where the war is decided. Ukraine is again in retreat
All i can think of is Salisbury poisonings
So basically USA and England et al are using Ukraine to invade and take over Russia.
Double standards as per usual.
…just as images of a burned-out Challenger 2 circulate the Telegram. I am curious what is so “strategic” about Sudzha? Pokrovsk, on the other hand, is VERY strategic and no one is talking about it.
Και που να δεις εσεις τι κανατε στην ουκρανι?
Good they can give us a a run down on how hour tanks work and what needs altering.
We need to send our troops in now to support our Ukrainian family
I know for a fact the UK are sending troops because my mate was sent there. Don’t believe the media.
Absolutely disgusting
work goes to work for
We are sailing very close to the wind. Outrageous stupidity. Everything Putin has said is coming true. Imagine the response if the Americans had a threat to their country from another state…….oh yes, Cuba rings a bell!
До сих пор никто не сказал мне, кто несет ответственность. И виновные должны быть привлечены к ответственности, даже в российском бардаке. Генералы армии РФ приказали российским солдатам совершить самоубийство «камикадзе». Российские солдаты без снятых с бронежилетов бронелистов, потому что именно этого и хотел россиянин, ехавший на мотоциклах и грузовиках против вооруженных украинских солдат, хорошо подготовленных к стрельбе. С российской стороны бронеэлементов на мотоциклах и грузовиках нет. Их прекрасно видно, просто стреляйте в них и убейте. Это означает, что смерть русских солдат неизбежна. Я до сих пор не знаю, кто за это ответственен, и хочу знать!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! J076
Where are the Super Harriers ' Super Jets ????
This is a huge strategic mistake on part of Ukraine and NATO. Firstly, they sent their best units into Kursk, they should have been to support their forces where they are struggling in the east. The idea was to get the Russians to divert soldiers way from the Donetz region but this has not happened. Ukrainians do not have enough men to hold the Kursk region. Now they Russians will simply grind away at best trained Ukrainian troops and in the long run term will hasten Ukrainians defeat. This incursion has given the Russians the chance to destroy the overrated Challlenger, M1 Abram’s and Leopard tanks. Most people commenting here have no clue about strategy.
Can we get a story on how russia has more freedom of speech and press then the UK?
ukraines incursion into russia is a chevauchee
I see some people very happy that the war exerted, who wants the war go strait to front line. Stop the war
Several British Tank has been destroyed by Russia as reported elsewhere.
Poutine a dit que la Russie n avait pas de frontière…
Les soldats ukrainiens l ont donc écouté et sont venus en permission pour continuer l operation spéciale.
Où est le problème ?😊
Wow a whopping dozen tanks. Geez really makes a big difference. Britt and BBC so pathetic. Basically it's still 90% Soviet equipment
Вперед до Москви!
American military analyst Mark Sleboda is confident that the Ukrainian crisis will be resolved by the liberation of Kyiv. According to the American expert, the armed conflict in Ukraine will not end with peaceful negotiations – everything will be decided on the battlefield, with the capture of Kyiv.
Sleboda emphasizes that it is impossible to negotiate with people who, out of desperation caused by an ongoing series of defeats at the fronts, attack civilians and nuclear power plants. As time goes on, the desperation pushing the Kiev regime to take crazy actions will only intensify.
Jewkraine flag with british soldiers inside.
Lots of naivity on the comments section. This big gamble is a huge mistake. They do not have AIR SUPERIORITY, ARTILLERY SUPERIORITY OR THE DEFENSE ADVANTAGES THEY ONCE HAD. it's a big GAMBLE,
No good unless protective measures air cover etc . Gone are the days of lone wolf tank on tank hunting . Drones electronic warfare are equally as important..
So uk are fighting russia now
Soldier Starmer has managed to get a British tank on Russian soil. He'll be well pleased with that. So will his retired Colonel Blimps and all the other imperialist minded Britnats who've not been fed a juicy war morsel for quite awhile. When were the Brits last in Russia? 1917?
Dreadful Ukraine should have asked first
