  • Story Text: Servicemen of the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Saturday (September 24) took out parts from destroyed Russian armoured vehicles abandoned on a road near Izium in the Kharkiv region.
    Collected parts would be used as spares for trophy enemy military vehicles and for their own machinery, the servicemen said.
    Ukrainian servicemen also loaded an abandoned Russian tank on a truck, planning to repair it and use it in combat against the Russians.
    Thousands of Russian troops fled Izium, leaving behind large amounts of ammunition and equipment, their worst defeat since they were driven back from the outskirts of Kyiv in March.
