The Ukrainian Armed Forces’ advance has been halted by Russian minefields, prompting Kiev to seek more new tanks from the West

The minefields present a substantial challenge, with potentially hundreds of thousands, even up to a million, explosive devices scattered across the terrain, as reported by Frankfurter Rundschau.

Prior to any offensive, the Ukrainian military must meticulously clear these hazardous minefields, a perilous undertaking. Furthermore, the equipment currently supplied by Western allies falls short in addressing this crucial task.

Given this situation, Kiev urgently appeals for military support from its allies, specifically requesting the provision of mine-clearing gear, particularly German-made tanks like the Wisent. However, the deliveries are experiencing delays and are arriving in limited numbers.
