Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky acknowledged for the first time on August 10 that Kyiv’s forces were fighting in the surprise offensive in Russia's Kursk, as attacks on the border region continued with authorities rushing to evacuate people. Moscow's forces were in their sixth day of intense battles against Kyiv's largest incursion into Russian territory since the start of the war, which left southwestern parts of Russia vulnerable before reinforcement started arriving.

What’s behind Ukraine’s surprise incursion into Russia’s Kursk region? Is it a ploy to distract Moscow’s forces from Donetsk where they are making gradual advances?

    The incursion into Kursk and the constant bombing of Belgorod have to be the dumbest thing in this conflict. Russia withdrew from both area's due to strategic blunder but now you give them an excuse to mobilise, occupy and annex those territories.

  • @user-jm7zk9sl8l
    What other response did Kyiv expect for such an insane escalation bid that anyway couldn't have saved Zelensky's ass?
  • @user-rs4nr6rj5m
    zelensky's days are numbered and he is taking desperate but futile actions
  • @logiczchance101
    unfortunately the russians will now have to take over the region from which the attack was conducted in order to prevent any future such actions from being carried out ever again. so basically, ukraine gave yet another major part of their territory on a plate to russia. but that is what usually happens when lessons are not learned.
  • Zeleanksy gamble Will be crushed with devastating results that could force zeleanksys exit from Kiev
