Russian official: Most of the Abrams tanks provided to Ukraine were destroyed

According to Isna, “Maxim Boyakovich”, the deputy permanent representative of Russia in the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE), said at the agency’s meeting today: “Two-thirds of the Abrams tanks provided by the United States to Ukraine have been destroyed.”

He added: “This issue has become a significant issue after the massive destruction of NATO’s “famous and highly praised” military equipment in the face of Russian weapons.”

According to Sputnik, the Deputy Permanent Representative of Russia to the European Agency for Security and Cooperation in Europe also said: “The Anglo-Saxons and their allies are discussing the use of highly accurate long-range weapons after failing to achieve their goals with the current equipment provided to Ukraine.” They are to attack the depths of Russia.”

Boyakovic’s statements about the destruction of American Abrams tanks, while recently, a specialized military media reported that the statistics of the destruction of American Abrams tanks used by the Ukrainian army in the war against Russia has risen to an alarming level.

According to the report of “Military Watch” last week, more than 20 of the total of 31 American Abrams tanks that the Western allies delivered to Ukraine were destroyed, disabled or fell into the hands of Russian forces.

In an interview with the Western media, Ukrainian soldiers have complained about the disadvantages of the version of the American Abrams tanks provided to the Ukrainian army, which include technical disadvantages such as the low resistance of electronic components and the vulnerability of these tanks to Russian weapons.

The Military Watch magazine wrote that a video dated September 14, which was recently published, confirms the statements of Russian sources regarding the possession of an M1A1 Abrams tank that was used by the Ukrainian army.

Less than a week before that, 2 images were published that confirmed that 2 more Abrams M1A1 tanks used by the Ukrainian army in the conflicts were destroyed, one of them near the village of “Volchiya” on the axis of “Pokrovsk” and the other near The village of Berdichi in Donbas was destroyed.

A video was published about a week before that, which confirmed that another Abrams tank of the Ukrainian army, along with a German Leopard tank of the 2A6 model, was captured by Russian soldiers near the city of Avdiyka.

Recent images show that the process of destroying Abrams tanks used by Ukrainian forces has intensified significantly.

This trend comes after the Ukrainian army experienced similar heavy casualties in its tanks from late February to mid-April.
