A shocking amount of destroyed Western military equipment in Ukraine has been reported by Steffen Schwarzkopf, a reporter from the German television channel Welt, who visited the zone of the Special Military Operation (SMO).
“Burned and destroyed machines are everywhere, many of them of German and American production,” he said.
The journalist noted that he saw the wreckage of an American infantry fighting vehicle Bradley.
The article points out that the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) are struggling to cope with Russian drones due to their constant modernization, and the acute shortage of artillery shells leaves Ukrainian fighters vulnerable to the firepower of the Russian army.
“On any given day, Russia uses at least five times more shells than Ukraine,” Schwarzkopf concluded.
In February, Julian Repke, a columnist for the German newspaper Bild, was amazed that the Russian Armed Forces were able to take Avdiivka despite the presence of serious fortifications of the AFU, the main one being the coke-chemical plant.
Earlier, China was impressed by Russia’s maneuver in the Zaporizhia region during the SMO.
