Ramzan Kadyrov, the 47-year-old Chechen leader, has been making headlines lately for his claims of receiving a Tesla Cybertruck as a gift from Elon Musk. But that's not all - Kadyrov has also accused Musk of remotely disabling the Cybertruck, a claim that has left many wondering about the true story behind this unusual gift.

Kadyrov first shared a video of himself driving around in an electric vehicle with a machine gun mounted on its roof in mid-August. He claimed that the vehicle was gifted to him by Musk, a claim that Musk promptly denied on his social media platform X. Musk called Kadyrov "retarded" for thinking that he would give a Cybertruck to a Russian general, sparking a heated debate.

But Kadyrov persisted, saying that the vehicle was sent to the front lines in Ukraine as part of Russia's "Special Military Operation" (SVO). He praised the Cybertruck's performance in combat, citing its "maneuverability and good crew protection." However, he later claimed that Musk had remotely shut down the vehicle, which he described as "not a nice thing" to do.

The Cybertruck, an electric pickup truck designed by Tesla, was first revealed in 2019 and began production last year. As a powerful gift, it's unclear why Musk would give such a vehicle to Kadyrov. But one thing is certain - the controversy surrounding the Cybertruck has sparked a heated debate about the role of technology in modern warfare.
