Isn't it amazing how Ukrainians are able to hold the Russian forces with their six remaining tanks.
For some reason, you forget or ignore the military assistance of Western countries

How many tanks did they send?
The Czech Republic, Poland and Slovenia together sent about 200 T-72 tanks of various modifications to Ukraine. I do not consider German Leopards-1 a serious weapon, but nevertheless. The number of armored personnel carriers and self-propelled howitzers supplied by the West to Ukraine is no longer in the hundreds, but closer to thousands. Also, the West sent anti-tank systems of various types to Ukraine at the rate of ten complexes per one Russian tank. This is only from the West, and there are still huge stocks of weapons inherited from the USSR. Recently, in Balakliya, the Russians took control of the "65th Arsenal" ammunition depot with about 150,000 tons of shells.

Ukraine still has a very serious arsenal of weapons and ammunition, even considering the very serious losses after two months of demilitarization.
