Elon Musk is facing controversy after reports emerged that a Tesla Cybertruck has been received by US-sanctioned Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov. Kadyrov, who is under US sanctions, reportedly stated that he received the vehicle from Musk and plans to deploy it in Ukraine against US-backed troops. The Cybertruck, modified for military use by Archimedes Defense and Unplugged Performance, has been equipped with a machine gun.
