Local media reports that Germany will send Ukraine at least one company of Leopards, which usually comprises 14 tanks — but Berlin is yet to confirm the move.
abc.net.au/news/germany-sends-leopard-2-tanks-ukraine/101890324Germany will send Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine and allow other countries such as Poland to do the same to help Kyiv fight off Russia's invasion, while the United States may supply Abrams tanks, two sources have told Reuters.
Kyiv has pleaded for months for Western tanks that it says are desperately needed to give its forces the firepower and mobility to break through Russian defensive lines and recapture occupied territory in the east and south. The German decision concerns at least one company of Leopard 2 A6 tanks, said Der Spiegel magazine, which first reported the news. One company usually comprises 14 tanks.
