The Russian command again lied. From the usual “no father” the Russians moved on to statements about the destruction of equipment that is not physically on the territory of Ukraine.
Russian General Igor Konashenkov announced this in his daily report on the “victories of the occupiers”. He stated that the invaders destroyed American equipment in Ukraine, which the Armed Forces of Ukraine will receive only in a few weeks.
What Konashenkov said
He stated that during the day the Russians destroyed 11 Ukrainian tanks and 17 infantry fighting vehicles.
In addition, Konashenkov noted that the invaders disabled 4 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles, which Ukraine has not even received yet.

When Ukraine will receive Bradley
- On January 6, the US announced a new $3 billion aid package to Ukraine. Subsequently, the Pentagon specified that, among other things, it would include 50 Bradley infantry fighting vehicles with 500 TOW anti-tank missiles and 250,000 rounds of 25 mm caliber;
- The US Department of Defense said that they expect the Armed Forces of Ukraine to receive Bradley infantry fighting vehicles very soon. According to them, it's a matter of weeks. US Department of Defense spokesman Brigadier General Pat Ryder said that Washington is not going to announce in advance when exactly the BMPs will arrive in Ukraine.
- Moreover, he noted that the training of our military will take place on the basis of combined arms training in the German Grafenwehr, in the land of Bavaria. Ryder added that the United States will continue to provide Ukraine with the assistance necessary not only for defense, but also for the liberation of the territories occupied by Russia.
- The Pentagon says that the launch of the new combined arms training will take place later this month, that is, in January 2023. 500 soldiers will be trained for approximately a month.
