Ukrainian soldiers heartened by delivery of US Abrams tanks
Ukrainian tank crews in eastern Ukraine see the first delivery of US Abrams tanks to Kyiv as a boost that will offer them more protection and firepower in battle.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Monday (September 25) that Ukraine had taken delivery of its first shipment of U.S. jet-powered Abrams tanks to help in the defence against Russia’s invasion.
Ukrainian tank crews training in the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine said that once they were deployed, the Abrams tanks would be a big step up from the Soviet-era tanks they have been operating.
A tank commander who uses the call-sign “Wel“ said his team needed the additional firepower and protection offered by the Abrams and other Western tanks, such as the German-made Leopard.
