#Ukraine: Russian media showed videos of equipment "captured from the Ukrainian army in Lysychansk pocket".
However not everything is that simple: some vehicles have nothing to with Lysychansk and all shown were captured in #Luhansk Oblast over past months.

The first tank, a Ukrainian T-72AV was captured in the vicinity of Sievierodonetsk, Luhansk Oblast recently.

The second tank, a Ukrainian T-64BV, has no matches with tanks captured before, so we believe it is new.

The third, a Ukrainian T-64BV was captured back in April in Popasna, but was changed in it appearance to make ID harder.

The fourth, another Ukrainian T-64BV was captured in Popasna three months ago.

And the final - the fifth T-64BV tank which doesn't look like anything documented before, so we count this is as a new loss.

Note that it seems the vehicles were repainted a little in order to paint over Russian tactical signs (Z,V,O) and names of units who captured the vehicle; these were usually drawn on at the point of capture.

In videos shared we also counted at least 6 BMP-1, 3 BMP-2 and BRM-1K infantry fighting vehicles which belonged to the Ukrainian army. Very little of them could be seen to identify if they were seen previously, but as in the case of the tanks, all were captured in Luhansk Oblast.

A Ukrainian BTR-80 APC and two BRDM-2L1 scout cars were also captured by the Russian forces - one of them we covered few days ago.

A previously unseen captured Ukrainian 2S1 Gvozdika 122mm self-propelled howitzer and 2A36 Giatsint-B towed gun were also shown.

A Ukrainian armored KrAZ cargo truck, AT105A Saxon and two Varta armored infantry mobility vehicles were also captured by the Russian forces. One of Vartas has a V tactical sign, however there is no matching previously captured examples.

A Ukrainian KrAZ Cougar, BM-21 Grad launcher and three trucks including one fuel truck are shown.
And at least the Cougar was already previously displayed in Luhansk two months ago (pic 4).

Previously unseen Ukrainian MT-LB APC, PMP floating bridge truck and TMM-3M1 bridge layer were also captured by the Russian forces.

They also show a Ukrainian 9A33B Osa air defense system, but it was previously captured in Luhansk Oblast more than 3 months ago.

To sum up, there was quite significant losses of the Ukrainian army in Lysychansk by all means, however in the usual manner the Russian side decided to exaggerate them by bringing months-old trophies, giving us a hell of a task, but not an impossible one😎

Let us know in case we missed something and there are more vehicles which were previously recorded!
