How far will Ukraine advance in Russia's Kursk region?
Tuesday, 13 August 2024 () For the first time since the start of Russia's invasion, Ukraine has sent troops to capture a major part of Russian territory. Western experts say the Kursk incursion is a sign of a new strategy — but it's risky.
Russia's Ministry of Defence has released footage claiming to show large weapons deployed in the western Russian region of Kursk. It comes after Ukraine's shock cross border raid on Tuesday.
In a dramatic escalation, Russian forces have repelled multiple attempts by Ukrainian troops to Penetrate deep into the Kursk region. Over the past 24 hours, Ukrainian losses have been staggering, with 230 servicemen and 38 armored vehicles, including U.S.-made Stryker vehicles, destroyed by Russian strikes. Witness the intense military clashes as Russia’s Mi-28NM helicopters unleash devastating attacks, obliterating enemy forces and equipment. This video covers the latest developments from the frontlines, exposing the heavy toll on Ukrainian forces and the strategic maneuvers that turned the tide in Russia’s favor.

In a significant escalation of the ongoing conflict, Ukrainian forces launched a major missile attack on the Russian city of Kursk overnight from Saturday into Sunday. The strike resulted in a projectile, intercepted by local air defences, hitting a nine-story apartment building, causing extensive damage and injuries. The impact shattered the building's windows and ignited a fire that spread to nearby vehicles. Several shops in the vicinity also suffered damage from the explosion. Emergency crews from the regional headquarters of the Emergencies Ministry (EMERCOM) swiftly responded, extinguishing the fire and assessing the damage.
