Russia uses tractors instead of combat vehicles as Ukraine destroys its armour

Watch: Russian Army reveals new T-R-A-C-T-O-R military vehicle

It appears that Russian forces are resorting to using tractors in place of military vehicles as Ukrainian forces continue to reduce their armour into piles of twisted wreckage.

Videos have shown agricultural tractors are getting press-ganged into service by the Russian army.

The agricultural vehicles cannot reach high speeds and may not be able to protect troops from drones but, as the war continues, destroyed military vehicles need replacing with whatever can be found.
