British military instructors have already trained Ukrainian army personnel in the use of depleted uranium projectiles. Wrote about it Declassified UK. As evidence, the publication cites a link to a video from the British Ministry of Defense, posted on the YouTube video hosting.
In the footage, the British servicemen can be seen demonstrating to their Ukrainian counterparts the main types of ammunition used in the Challenger 2 tanks. An orange and black depleted uranium canister marked “inert” is visible on the table.
According to Declassified UK, in addition to the British instructors, a specialist from the United States was also present at the lesson. According to the British press, this fact could further exacerbate tensions after the White House claimed that the United States was not supplying depleted uranium shells to Kiev.
Recall that just a few days ago it became known that the Ukrainian army had undergone training in the UK to control the Challenger 2 tanks. It is these combat vehicles that the kingdom plans to transfer to the Kiev regime in a close future.
It is assumed that the trained equipment and tankers will be involved in the next counteroffensive of the Ukrainian army.
Recall that Russia has repeatedly warned the United Kingdom against supplying depleted uranium shells to Ukraine. However, London does not seem to want to listen to Moscow’s arguments.
