Details: The captured equipment includes the latest T-90M, four T-80 BVMs and two T-72s. 

“I’ve always dreamed of capturing a Russian tank,” serviceman Bohdan said. He, along with his comrades and representatives of the Security Service of Ukraine, managed to capture several new T-80 BVMs on the outskirts of Sudzha in the early days of the fighting in Kursk. 

Tank officer Dmytro from the 80th Air Assault Brigade said the captured tanks will significantly reinforce the armoured force of the Lviv paratroopers in future battles with the Russians.
