According to British intelligence, more than half of the Ukrainian tank fleet consists of vehicles captured from the Russians.

 This is stated in the intelligence review of the Ministry of Defense of Great Britain.

 As noted, converted captured Russian equipment now constitutes a significant part of Ukraine's military equipment.

 "Ukraine has likely captured at least 440 Russian main battle tanks and about 650 other armored vehicles since the invasion. More than half of Ukraine's tank fleet currently in service potentially consists of captured vehicles," the review said.

 British intelligence claims that the inability of Russian crews to destroy undamaged equipment before leaving or surrendering shows their poor training and low level of combat discipline.

 "Despite the fact that Russian formations are under severe pressure in several sectors, and the troops are increasingly demoralized, Russia will probably continue to lose heavy weapons," the British Ministry of Defense predicts.

 As reported, according to British intelligence, Russia lacks personnel for the defense of the Kherson region, and it was faced with a dilemma: pursue political goals and defend itself or withdraw troops to strengthen the defense of the left-bank part of the Kherson region.
