Russia's Military Relies on Decades-Old Tanks, Drawing Criticism.

Footage of Soviet-era T-54 and T-55 tanks being transported across Russia has raised questions about the equipment losses suffered by Moscow's forces in Ukraine. The Tbilisi-based research group Conflict Intelligence Team reported that Russian battlefield losses are so high that Moscow is using seven-decade-old armored vehicles to make up the shortfall. Social media users have mocked the move, with some speculating about the significance of the footage and whether the tanks would be used on the front line. Despite their age, defense experts say the tanks would still be useful for Russia's forces.
