Military equipment supplied to Ukraine by the West are being damaged by rodents, Le Figaro revealed in a report released on February 22.
The French newspaper said in its report that the equipment are “sometimes unsuitable for the realities of the front” and “don’t come out well” in an actual conflict.
Le Figaro provided an account by a French fighter in the ranks of Kiev forces, who complained that “rodents ate the cables on some of the vehicles.”
“Some of the protective sheaths of electrical wires [in the Western-supplied hardware] are made of corn fiber,” which attracts mice and rats, the unnamed fighter said.
The newspaper noted that “the phenomenon is marginal, but it tells the story of the confrontation of the Western military equipment with reality.”
“Western vehicles were designed as a technological showcase. But, in the mud and cold, they don’t always work,” the French fighter said.
“Luckily, the Ukrainians still had a few crusts” in their arsenal, he added, referring to the old Soviet-made hardware.
The United Kingdom Ministry of Defence warned last December that a mild autumn and an abundance of food from the fields left uncultivated due to the hostilities had fueled an increase in the rodent population in areas of conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The animals “are likely seeking shelter in military vehicles and defensive positions,” it said at the time, warning that the rodents “exert additional pressure on soldiers’ morale” and also “pose a danger to military equipment by chewing through cables.”
Ukraine has received hundreds of billions worth of military equipment from the United States and other backers since the beginning of the Russian special military operation around two years ago. Most of these equipment were made in the West.
Kiev forces bet heavily on the superiority of its Western-made equipment, especially combat vehicles, during the last spring counteroffensive. The equipment were however easily defeated by Russian troops, in some cases using Soviet-era weapons, and the counteroffensive turned out to be a complete failure.
Commenting on the Ukrainian defeat, President of Russia Vladimir Putin said last December that “the myth of the invulnerability of Western military equipment has collapsed” during the special military operation.
tak to už musí byť iný level keď už aj hlodavce sú proti banderovským fašistickým sviniam, ha, ha, ha …
so it would be useful to train millions of russian rodents to eat cables then send them to the front.
if the rodents can pilot a ka52 helicopter, then it might be a great plan…
we amerikanist are rodents—an inferior loser species like jens holm the vaginaa
i tell you a secret. they are partisan mice, specially trained by russians.
a lot of western military equipment is simply not up to the job especially in adverse weather conditions. even the raf jump jet’s from the 1970s at the time lauded as being the most advanced fast jets in service were unable to function in places like the middle east the sand blocked up the jet engines!
if you see any double commenting from me, it means the orange text “awaiting approval” disappeared.

dunce amerikant poko molo retired janitor tiresome
the motivation of russians: defend our country with everything we’ve got. the motivation of the americans: get at much money as possible. which do you think will produce what it takes to win a war?
better to say bankers than “americans”. usa exists only as a bankers tool. however most of my fellow countrymen are too stupid to see this. they gave their nation up to zionist moneychangers.
rodents run the empire of lies

free ukrainian rats
help support blinken’s rodentocracy!
lol… worried about rodents eh? blame the failed offensive on the bloody russian mice… let’s all practice collective western group think and repeat together… it had nothing to do with ka52 helicopters blowing the lids off the nato armour… not ever, never ever. nope, russian had to throw rats at the nazis in self defense. there…now it makes more sense…
that has made me chuckle. reminds me of the same crowd, over in syria, that were fighting for the n w o. they got taken out by a few wild boar. just gotta love ‘mother nature’ and her love of karma.
talking of rodents and ukraine, why have schumer (us), boris johnson (uk), ursula the water witch from the eu and other leaders from eu members, turned up in kiev? just when biden is begging for money and none is on offer? reminds me of john brennan, when in charge of the cia, turning up covertly, a couple of weeks before events in odessa on 2 may 2014. so what false flag have they got planned this time?
these parasites you mention may have gone to see the kiev junta in order to work out a deal. a deal they won’t share the details of with the public. they will be lied to as usual. other than that, the journey of the parasites could be yet another pr stunt. maybe they all decided to go at once because they know there isn’t enough time for them all to go individually. packing in the stunts whilst they can. regards am.
false flag or a deal. i heard a rumour that vicy ‘fueu’ got taken out the last time she was in kiev, by a missile. have no idea if true or not, but, did schumer take her place and did she also miss out on the party the other week, when they had their last gathering? must admit, if the rumour was true, it would be so fitting. the cookie monster and how important kiev was to her. apt place to leave the planet. hope any false flag fails before it starts.
i would rather see that warmonger swinging from a noose, but whatever. let’s hope there is more to that rumour.
nudelman said she wanted to ‘tighten the noose’ around russia but she’s so fat, she stumbled into it herself.
eu odeio joe biden!
with you there.
they brought zelensky some crying towels as a consolation prize.
meinstein syndrome.
meu deus do céu, uma epidemia de ratos está danificando os veículos militares ocidentais, que pura merda são esses veículos do ocidente. ratos e ratazanas continuem o bom trabalho!
the tanks are made out of cakes with nutella. that verims are hungggery ukies that starves for billions.
it’s not very nice to be calling ukrops rodents.
