The Russian Ministry of Defense released aerial footage on the 8th that appeared to show the destruction of one of the Ukrainian army’s most valuable German-made Leopard 2 tanks.
business insider reportRussian officials claimed that this video was recorded in Zaporizhzhia, Udon. It can be seen that a row of tanks was driving in the field, and shells exploded around. One of the tanks, which appeared to be a Leopard 2, was on fire.
The report pointed out that Russia has lied regarding military exploits in the past, so there is reason to be cautious, but those in the open source intelligence (OSINT, open source intelligence) community believe that this is a legitimate image. Two of the most prominent Twitter tracking accounts, “UA Weapons Tracker” and “Oryx”, both believe that this is video evidence of the Panther being killed.
According to reports, some netizens asked regarding the ability to verify the images, and it was determined that a Leopard 2A4 tank was destroyed. “UA Weapons Tracker” pointed out that the Russian images were cleared enough to match the burning wreckage with the Leopard tank.
German Bild has already reported the news, and its reporter Julian Röpcke published more new photos of the damage to Western military aid equipment on his Twitter.
