Ukrainian forces are using British Challenger 2 main battle tanks inside Russia’s Kursk Region, Sky News reported on Thursday.
The UK government has donated 14 of its main battle tanks, and encouraged other NATO nations to provide their heavy weapons after the move was announced in January 2023. They were delivered to Ukraine’s 82nd Air Assault Brigade, but were mostly kept in reserve, after some were destroyed by Russian drones and artillery during Kiev’s attempted counteroffensive later that year.
