'Toothless' Leopards and 'battered' Abrams: Russian TV mocks Nato tanks promised to Ukraine – video

Russian state TV reacted with acerbic putdowns on Wednesday to the news that the US and Germany had finally agreed to send tanks to Ukraine. The Rossiya-24 TV channel broadcast a series of mocking stories. In one on-air sequence titled 'Toothless cats', the presenter said the German-made tanks were 'more primitive', heavier, less manoeuvrable and had a shorter firing range compared with Russian T-90s. Pointing to an on-screen graphic showing a fictional battle between T-90 and Leopard tanks, the news anchor said half of the Nato platoon would be hit before even reaching the battlefield. Another withering sequence called the US-made tanks 'battered Abrams' and showed footage of the armoured vehicles being struck in a number of past battles Russia-Ukraine war - live updatesUkraine under mass missile attack a day after west’s promise of tanksUkraine says US and German tank pledges ‘only the beginning’ and calls for fighter jets
