Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been accused by Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov of “remotely disabling” his Cybertruck, which was outfitted with a machine gun and sent to the frontline of Russia's war in Ukraine.
On Thursday, Kadyrov claimed in a post on Telegram that the vehicle was “performing well in combat,” but later it shut down. This was followed by another post on Friday wherein he stated that two more Tesla Cybertrucks have been sent to the frontline.
Kadyrov, known for his active involvement in Russia's military operations in neighbouring Ukraine, claimed that the high-tech vehicle had to be towed from the battlefield as it was "remotely" switched off, CNN reported.
"What Elon Musk did was not nice. He gives expensive gifts from the heart and then remotely switches them off," Kadyrov wrote in Russian.
