Ukraine mocks Russia as it parades hundreds of destroyed Russian tanks on the streets of Kyiv ahead of Independence Day celebrations (PHOTOs/ VIDEO)


 Saturday, August 20, 2022 – Ukraine paraded destroyed Russian tanks and armour along the streets of Kyiv on Saturday August 20, to mock Russia’s invasion as it prepares for Independence Day celebrations.

Before Saturday, the vehicles most of which were destroyed in the first weeks of the war, were set up outside the iconic St Michael’s Monastery as a reminder of Russia’s aggression.

However, on Saturday morning, they were moved by cranes and lorries to Khreshchatyk Street, in preparation for Ukraine’s independence day on 24 August.

Last year the road was the site of a large patriotic rally and military parade as a show of strength.

Russia initially planned to use the street to celebrate if it had captured Kyiv during the early stages of the war.

The Ukranian ministry of defence posted videos of Ukranians touring and taking pictures alongside the destroyed tanks and armoury.
