香蕉视频直播淚n Kelowna, we all know that we have Ogopogo, and it香蕉视频直播檚 a kind of dragon,香蕉视频直播 Kelowna Stands With Ukraine President Daniel Sora explained. 香蕉视频直播淎nd this huge truck is also a kind of dragon. In the Ukrainian language, we say not ogo but oh贸 (or og贸)香蕉视频直播t means wow.香蕉视频直播
This latest project follows a similar truck (K1) delivered by Sora close to the Ukrainian front lines of battle in May 2024.
香蕉视频直播淲e purchased this truck when the first one was still here in Canada, because we got a very good deal on this truck,香蕉视频直播 Sora said.
A quad is also being delivered with K2. According to Sora, vehicles like this are a lifeline for some military units, especially those tasked with transporting heavy loads, wounded soldiers, or critical supplies.
香蕉视频直播淚t香蕉视频直播檚 100 per cent vital,香蕉视频直播 he said. 香蕉视频直播淭his kind of vehicle they evacuate the wounded soldiers, and that needs to be done to save lives.香蕉视频直播
Not all units need a truck that size, Sora added, explaining he offered it to a friend in a medical unit, who turned it down because it was 香蕉视频直播渢oo huge.香蕉视频直播 The friend inquired about the truck weeks later, but it had been promised to another unit that needed it. The previous vehicle, K1, spent time transporting artillery shells.
香蕉视频直播淎merican trucks香蕉视频直播 are bigger and more powerful than European ones, so they can do more heavy-duty jobs,香蕉视频直播 Sora pointed out.
He said they prioritize diesel trucks, which are easier for the Ukrainian military to refuel. 香蕉视频直播淒iesel machines are more powerful, more reliable, and last longer than gas ones,香蕉视频直播 he explained.
When asked if he would once again deliver the truck himself, Sora said that it香蕉视频直播檚 still undecided.
