Ukraine troops welcome UK plans to provide Challenger tanks – BBC News

Published

on



Troops on the frontline in Ukraine’s Bakhmut have told the BBC they welcome news they are to receive around a dozen Challenger tanks from the UK, a move they hope will turn the tide in the war.

Russian authorities claimed they have taken control of the city of Soledar in Ukraine’s eastern Donestk region.

But this has been denied by a Ukranian army spokesperson, who said fighting there is continuing.

    A few UK tanks that need different ammo from other tanks might be more of a problem than a solution.

    Victory ✌️ to western plutocracy and military industrial complex plutocrats ruling the west and who own the media and politicians.

    War means new weapons markets and profits and clearing of old inventory .

    Profits means more money 💰 for mansions and super yachts and private jets and other good things in life.

    Victory ✌️ to the profiteers of war. ✌️

    It takes months to train troops in using tanks in a tragedy. These poor soldiers are sent to die, there is alot of anarchy on both sides.

    Why are we not giving much more? From what I understand we are only retaining 148 – T2 to T3 and the remaining T2 tanks, some 80 tanks, could be handed over to Ukraine.

    Kind of a shame Poland went with Leopard tanks and not challengers 🙂 The German government has hamstrung the German weapons export market for years to come because of their reluctance to supply MBT's or to allow the transfer of German made MBT's to Ukraine.

  35. @Frosty-nq4xp

    January 5, 2024 at 10:05 am

    Couldn't sending out a few challenger 2 tanks be a security risk? What happens if Russia gets hold of a couple of them. I don't have an issue with helping Ukraine by all means give them everything it's just a concern as it's our main battle tank. If I'm wrong please correct me 😊

    The Maidan happened through the fault of the West … the new government aspired to join NATO and it was not opposed to hosting air defense, near our borders, somewhere in Belopolye.

    We could not allow this, we came to Ukraine and took the territories of Crimea, Donetsk, Lugansk without shedding blood …

    80% of the Crimean army came over to our side and they are fighting on our side. The Don Cossacks are also on our side, like the offended people of the DPR, who survived the Ukrainian bombing of 2014-2016.

    We will not forget those atrocities that the ATO (Ukrainian nationalist formations) taught us. We will bring the matter to an end, and then I hope we will deal with those who helped Ukraine.

    Normally, I appreciate guest "experts" on BBC programs, but it is very difficult to listen to this apologist for the Russians, without throwing my shoe at my computer! Who cares about how the Russians are going to react? Who cares at all about the "Russian perspective"? Do the Russians give a damn about anyone else's perspective as they bomb civilian targets mercilessly. Do the orcs care about anyone's reaction as they crawl like cockroaches in a land where they do not belong? The only reason that the Russians are reacting is that they did not expect to get their backsides whipped the way that they have. I look forward to the day when the last orc is driven back to Mordor, with his tail between his legs. Slava Ukraini! God bless the United Kingdom. From Utah, USA.

    Letting you know that at 0:43 That the Russians are using the same exact old pieces of soviet equipment with little to most likely No modification whatsoever, even older models than the Ukrainians considering many Ukrainian tanks were fitted with newer technology, You also cant tell me these are no match to putins army, a country ranked in the 15-20's has in many cases won against and in other cases put one of the "Most feared best armies" at a halt. the "#2nd best military".

Charlie Kirk case prosecutors can seek death penalty, says judge | BBC News

Published

on



A 23-year-old Utah man has pleaded not guilty to the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk – as a judge ruled prosecutors can seek the death penalty at trial.

Tyler Robinson denies aggravated murder, a capital offence in Utah, and six other charges in connection with the shooting of Kirk at a campus event on 10 September 2025.

Defence lawyers had tried to have the death penalty taken off the table, but prosecutors argued that aggravating factors, such as firing into a crowd in the presence of children, warranted a capital trial.

Turning Point USA co-founder Kirk, 31, was shot in the neck while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem.

Iran retaliates after US strike kills four at wedding | BBC News

Published

on



Iran has launched missile and drone attacks at US targets across the Middle East, after American forces resumed strikes against Iran.

It comes after the Iranian Red Crescent said four people – including a child – were killed at a wedding celebration when shrapnel from a US missile hit a house in southern Iran.

Iranian media initially said five people had been killed.

The US military says it is aware of the reports but that it never targets civilians, and was striking Iranian targets in response to “recent attempted” Iranian attacks.
