MOSCOW, Russia (The Adobo Chronicles) – Russia on Sunday said it had destroyed at least seven German-made Leopard tanks and five U.S.-made Bradley vehicles over 48 hours while repelling Ukrainian attacks.

Almost immediately, Swedish environmental activist sent a very strong and direct message to Vladimir Putin, asking the Russian president to stop destroying leopards.

In a Messenger chat with The Adobo Chronicles, Thunberg lamented the killing of wild animals which provide a necessary and healthy balance to the environment.

But when we showed photos of Leopard tanks, Thunberg abruptly dropped from our conversation.
