Ukraine
A video appears to show the destruction of a British Challenger 2 tank on the Ukrainian battlefield. The Guardian reports on it. It would be the second time that one of the tanks of this type was destroyed in combat. At the start of the video, filmed from a car trying to escape the fighting, the Challenger 2, with its distinctive gun barrel, can be seen shrouded in thick gray smoke, although it is not clear what caused the explosion put it out of service. The tank, used for the first time in the Iraq War, proved to be superior to all tanks encountered. In March 2003, a Challenger 2 tank was destroyed by friendly fire in Iraq.
