Video shows ‘first British Challenger 2 tank destroyed’ in Ukraine
A battlefield video circulating online appears to show the destruction of a British Challenger 2 tank in Ukraine.
The burning wreck of the military vehicle is seen in footage from the frontline and would be the first time one of the tanks has been destroyed in combat.
In the video, a vehicle with a cracked windscreen drives past as black smoke is seen rising from the roadside, although it is unclear what caused the explosion.
Britain initially supplied 14 Challenger 2 tanks to Ukraine and then doubled that number to 28.
