Ukraine’s National Guard has destroyed or disabled 112 Russian tanks in the first month of 2024, with an estimated total value of over $300 million, Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko, said on Feb. 1.
The list includes around 10 T-90 “Proryv” (Breakthrough) tanks, “that Russia has boasted about.”
“The National Guardsmen have repeatedly proven that there are no ‘impenetrable’ targets for Ukrainian ‘birds’ (drones),” Klymenko said, sharing video evidence of some of the successful strikes.
