Russia begins efforts to expel Ukraine from Kursk

A Russian counteroffensive is currently underway in the Kursk region to reclaim territory lost to Ukrainian forces after a surprise cross-border attack last month.

Ukraine’s initial assault saw significant territorial gains, but experts believe it will struggle to maintain control.

Ukrainian President Volodyr Zelensky acknowledged Russia’s counteroffensive, which reportedly involves 60,000 to 70,000 troops, but claimed that Russian forces have seen little success so far.

While some Russian units have retaken a few villages, the overall situation is fluid and characterized by minimal reliable frontline information.

U.S. assessments suggest Russia may need up to 20 brigades to effectively push Ukrainian forces out of Kursk, but current Russian efforts appear marginal.

Despite intense fighting and some territorial shifts, experts point out that Russia’s military cohesion and combat experience remain questionable, CNN has reported.
