Ukraine is set to receive dozens of Leopard 1 tanks fitted with modern weapons systems under a new European deal. Belgian newspaper De Standaard reported that a secret buyer had purchased 50 Leopard 1s from a private company in Belgium. Freddy Versluys, CEO of defence company OIP Land Systems, had bought the German-made tanks over five years ago. The Belgian military had sold off these 50 tanks to the company in order to cut down on the expenses. Watch the video to find out who has acquired the tanks?
