WAR IN UKRAINE
Swedish tanks struggling in Ukraine
The western tanks such as the American Bradley and the Swedish CV90 sent to Ukraine, are not proving as useful as hoped, due to the huge number of landmines now in the country.
That's according to Swedish soldier Christopher Forsbäck, who's fought in the Zaporizhzhia region, and says there's an 'unfathomable' number of landmines.
It means the tanks simply can't make any progress.
