Russia's Control of Bakhmut Spurs U.S. Tank Delivery to Ukraine.
TL;DR Summary
The United States is expediting training of Abrams tanks for Ukrainian fighters as key territory in Ukraine has been claimed by Russian forces. The M1 Abrams tanks will arrive in Germany in the next few weeks, with training commencing about two weeks later. All 31 tanks will arrive at Grafenwoehr Training Area in Germany at the end of May, with the total training period expected to last 10 weeks. The U.S. is also providing ground-based air defense capability to Ukraine, but air defense is still not on the table.
