Russia probably destroys the first Abrams tank in Ukraine - bloggers point out the detail. Ukraine will have received a total of 31 of the battle tanks by October 2023.

“Our soldiers said from the beginning that these tanks would burn just like others,” state news agency RIA quoted Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov as saying. The tank is actually one of the best battle tanks in the world. The enormous weight of 61.3 tons doesn't seem particularly suitable for the muddy ground in winter.
