Canada has allowed Ukraine to use the armored vehicles it provided against the Russian Federation. A Canadian-made Senator multi-purpose vehicle has already been spotted on the territory of Russia.

The relevant permission was announced by the Canadian Ministry of National Defence on August 15. It was added that Ukraine is free to use the provided tanks and other armored vehicles on the territory of the Russian Federation, reports CBC.

"Ukrainians know best how to defend their homeland, and we're committed to supporting their capacity. Canada places no geographic restrictions on the use of military equipment that we donate to Ukraine," defense ministry spokesperson Andrée-Anne Poulin said in a press release.
