On Sunday, Ukraine seized intact Russian missiles and fired them back, an official told CNN. President Zelenskyy last week joked that captured gear made Russia a top arms supplier to Ukraine. Ukrainian forces captured a batch of intact Russian missiles and fired them back at Russian troops, CNN reported on Monday. Russian troops trying to invade Kyiv from the northwestern city of Hostomel on Sunday were attacked with their own weapons, Yuri Golodov, the deputy commander of one of Ukraine's territorial forces, told CNN. "Last night we sent the Ukrainian armed forces 24 Uragan missiles that were on their way here to fly over our cities," Golodov told CNN on Monday. "We captured them intact, gave them to the armed forces of Ukraine at night, and now the Ukrainian army has fired missiles back at them," he added. Golodov leads a team working to repair and repaint Russian military equipment that has been captured or abandoned, CNN reported. The team works on different types of military vehicles at a junkyard in Kyiv, fixing broken parts, removing communications systems, and painting over any Russian military symbols, the report said. "It looks like old weaponry, but actually if you use it correctly it will serve us for a long time," Golodov said, adding, "Everything that we take away from the Russian army, we transfer to the armed forces of Ukraine." Last week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy joked that Russia had become a major arms supplier to Ukraine because so much of its equipment had been captured by Ukrainian forces. "We take trophies and use them to protect Ukraine," Zelenskyy said in a video address. "Today, Russian troops are, in fact, one of the suppliers of equipment to our army." Ukraine's armed forces said on Monday that Russian troops had lost 498 tanks, 121 helicopters, and 1,535 armored personnel carriers since the start of the conflict on February 24. The figures have not been verified. Read the original article on Business Insider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 When we hear that Biden left 85 BILLION dollars worth of military equipment in Afghanistan, and here we have Ukrainians who could use that against this fukker Putin, it really pisses me off. I think if I was younger, and had some assurance that my family would not get retaliated against in any way, I would publicly challenge Biden to a " TOUGH MAN FIGHT " like they used to have on TV. I can't believe that more Americans are not coming out against Biden, and calling for his impeachment/removal. Sean Hannity rants against him every night...........what good does it do? Once a motherfukker is in power, it's next to impossible to remove the bastard of humanity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
