British armoured vehicles seized in Ukraine have been placed on display in Moscow city centre.
A Saxon armoured personnel carrier was seen alongside a German Leopard tank in the city's Victory Park.
The open-air space is usually used as a commemoration of the Red Army's victory over Nazi Germany at the end of World War Two.
However, the museum has been transformed into a glorification of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The month-long exhibit will also feature an American Bradley tank, a Swedish CV90 and a French-made AMX-10RC armoured fighting vehicle.
The captured vehicles were displayed beneath red banners reading "Our victory is inevitable" and are described as a celebration of Russia's success "against Ukrainian militants and their Western supporters."
Opening to visitors on May 1, the exhibition will run alongside Moscow's Red Square Victory Day Parade on May 9 in commemoration of the Soviet's victory against the Nazis.
Trucks transporting the captured military equipment from Nato nations donated to the Armed Forces of Ukraine were seen arriving at Poklonnaya Hill last week.

A similar event was held last year at Patriot Park near Moscow, where Russia also showcased a range of captured Western military equipment.
This includes an American-made M113 armoured personnel carrier and a fully intact French-made Storm Shadow cruise missile.
It comes as Ukrainian President Volodmir Zelensky issued a fresh plea to the international community to deliver more air defences, start formal talks for his country to enter the European Union, and invite Ukraine to join Nato.
Ukrainian forces face a worsening position in the east and await delivery of US weapons following the April 23 approval by Congress of a $61billion aid package after months of delay.

In a message to the Ukrainian people, he said: "We are still waiting for the supplies Ukraine was promised.
"We are expecting those volumes and scope that can change the situation on the battlefield in Ukraine's interests.
On entry to the European Union, President Zelensky said Ukraine had met all conditions for accession talks to start, "and now the EU must meet its obligations".
