Watch: What's the difference between Leopard 1 and Leopard 2 tanks being sent to Ukraine?

Ukraine is to receive hundreds of tanks from Nato nations - including UK Challenger 2s - as part of their support for Kyiv's defence against Russian aggression.

The German-made Leopard 2 tank, widely regarded as the best of its kind in the world, is being sent to Ukraine.

Kyiv is also set to receive at least 100 veteran Leopard 1 tanks from Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands.
