This is also confirmed in Warsaw, the Ukrainian press quotes the representative of the Armaments Agency of the Polish Ministry of Defense Krzysztof Platok, who states that the PT-91 Twardy MBT are already in Ukraine.
The fact that Poland may transfer a batch of PT-91 Twardy tanks to Ukraine in mid-July was reported by the Polish agency Visegrad 24, citing statements by military experts and politicians. According to the agency, Warsaw is ready to transfer another 232 T-72 tanks to Ukraine to the 240 already transferred, but only after it starts receiving Abrams M1A2 tanks ordered from the United States. It is worth noting that recently the first batch of American tanks intended for training Polish tankers arrived in Poland.
The Polish Defense Ministry itself had previously stated that there was no talk of transferring the upgraded PT-91 Twardy tanks to Ukraine, these tanks were supposed to remain in service with the Polish army until they were completely replaced by Western models.
