(ANSA-AFP) - MOSCOW, JUN 13 - Moscow said Tuesday that it had
captured several German Leopard tanks and US Bradley infantry
fighting vehicles, releasing footage showing Russian troops
surveying the equipment supplied to Ukraine by Western
countries. "Leopard tanks and Bradley infantry fighting
vehicles. These are our trophies. Equipment of the Ukrainian
armed forces in the Zaporizhzhia region," the Russian defence
ministry said in a statement. "Servicemen of the Vostok group
inspect enemy tanks and infantry fighting vehicles captured in
battle." Kyiv has appealed to its allies in the West to deliver
a broad range of modern military equipment to help Ukrainian
forces recapture large swathes of territory controlled by
Russian forces. The defence ministry said several of the
captured vehicles had working engines, suggesting that this
suggested the battles they were involved in had been short and
that Ukrainian troops had "fled" their offensive positions.
