Vladimir Putin says Russia facing 'difficult' period in 'Victory Day' celebration

A lone Soviet-era tank was featured in Russia's Victory Day parade for the second consecutive year, sparking mockery on social media towards President Putin's military display.
Agentstvo, a Russian investigative site, reported that the parade's simplicity reflects the ongoing absorption of resources due to the war in Ukraine since 2022.
Despite the T-14 Armata being deemed too costly for Ukraine and insufficient in numbers, the T-34 tank, a WWII relic, was the sole Russian tank showcased at the event.
