Russia's Defence Ministry released video footage on Tuesday of what it said were German-made Leopard tanks and U.S.-made Bradley Fighting Vehicles captured by Russian forces in a fierce battle with Ukrainian troops.
The Defence Ministry said the armoured vehicles and tanks were captured on the Zaporizhzhia front in southern Ukraine, one of the areas where Ukrainian forces have been trying to counter-attack.
Two Leopard tanks were shown in the footage, which was released on the ministry's official channel on the Telegram messaging application, along with two damaged Bradley Fighting Vehicles.
The ministry in a short statement accompanying the footage called the captured military hardware "our trophies"

Next time Putin has a military parade in Moscow, he can include some Leopards.
But this is no proxy war with the US.
It is strictly a Russia/Ukraine war.
Bravo! US MRAPS, too. Fact is they captured loads of AT4’s and Stingers also…Kadyrov promised to “ return them”, hopefully not up the tailpipe of a US commercial airliner….this I am willing to bet is why the Ukies will NEVER get the promised M1’s ( excuses will be made)….the world is seeing to much US and western equipment up in smoke….F-16’s next? Vlad’s S500 and S550’s take down of our advanced aircraft may finally end our stupidity.
Sorry, but it wouldn’t bother me a bit, we have no business in Ukraine, and giving away much needed war supplies to the corrupted, dark horse is a fools game designed to destroy us.
Well, how’s the MIC supposed to make money without losses? Methinks that’s the point.
Bunp
Bit surprised that the Russians have not gone on a shopping spree in Afghanistan. There is quite a selection of practically new military equipment no doubt available at reasonable prices.
The Democrat Party Organized Crime Syndicate doesn’t care how many Ukrainians die to cover up their criminal activities in Ukraine.

Its the same equipment?
I thought Ukie retreived it.
If is the same, thats pretty pathetic to recycle it like that.
First...look we destroyed a leopard-—the offensive has collapsed
Second...look we captuted leopard! (same leopard)
It is to laugh.
Russia finally has two decent tanks. Yay Russia.
More fake Russian propaganda designed to demoralize and discourage by recycling old images from different perspectives and angles.
You are absolutely right. This war was all about covering up the corruption of the democrat/bolshevik party in the US. Soon a lot of very damaging information will be released after the Russians take over most if not all of Ukraine.
Annalena Baerbock asked the media not to call “Leopards” German: “Understand, it does not matter at all where what is made. You don’t say about your iPhone that it’s American. You say it’s yours.
These are Ukrainian. And what they do with them has nothing to do with us. Thanks”
Thanks for posting the rules... nobody knew.
You’re still an idiot - but you did your good deed.
As an oldtimer you certainly didnt know the rules yet as your time in freeperjail proves.
“ Sorry, but it wouldn’t bother me a bit”
It shouldn’t bother you…the U.S. military under this government has become the point of the spear for the greatest evil inhabiting the Earth today.
