The Armed Forces began a new offensive: the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation involved a brigade in Kursk region broken under the coal - ISW

The 155th Brigade of Russian troops is known for the failure of the crash on the coal in late 2022-early 2023. In the future, she also fought in the Marinka area of ​​Donetsk region, participated in the offensive north of Kharkov in May 2024. And repeatedly recovered. The Ukrainian forces have launched new attacks in response to the counter -offensive of the Russians west of sleeping in the Kursk region and throughout the Ukrainian speech in the region.

About it writes "Institute of War Study" in the summary of September 10. The Ukrainian brigade, which probably operates in the Kursk region, reported on September 11 that the Armed Forces began to attack the flank of Russian troops west of sleep after the elementary Russian counterattack in the settlement. American analysts are referring to the fact that the Ukrainian forces are operating near Kulbaki (southwest of sleeping, about five kilometers from the international border).

According to OSINT researchers, this may indicate that the Armed Forces have recently advanced near the settlement. Russian sources also argued that the Armed Forces conducted small mechanized attacks in the Glushkovo area, near the bear, along the international border, and in another unintended area along the border. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation and Russian leading bloggers claimed that the Armed Forces reflected a number of Ukrainian attacks.

Available visual evidence confirms that Russian counter -attacks in Kursk region act as units from the mouth and can use more experienced units in combat. On September 10, geolocation shots show that the units of the Russian 51st Airborne Regiment carry out a mechanized attack by personnel around the North of Snagost. Russian sources indicate that Russian Marine Infantry and Battalion Tactical Groups of GPV carry out offensive operations in the Kursk region.

But the ISW found geolocated confirmation only that there was a mechanized attack about the mouth. According to analysts, the Russian forces did not use BTG on a large scale on the battlefield since the middle of 2022 after they were unable to achieve the offensive goals in the early stages of the war, as well as because of the damage caused to them during offensive operations in Kiev, Siverskovodonetsk, Mariupol and Lisichansk, which was associated with significant losses.

It is specified that in the last two years the Russian command has receded from the practice of using BTG as an organized unit, but their re -appearance in the Kursk region - if confirmed - will be a noticeable change. Until the ISW has found any confirmation that Russian forces use BTG in the Kursk region. Russian troops argued that the units of the Russian 56th Airborne Regiment and the 155th Marine Corps (Pacific Fleet) participate in counterattacks in the Kursk region.

The Russian 155th Brigade of Marine Corps is known for the failure of the crash on the coal in late 2022-early 2023. In the future, she fought in the area of ​​Marinka of Donetsk region, and was deployed to participate in the Russian offensive north of Kharkov in May 2024 - at the same time, mostly without a significant rest. The command had to restore the 155th Marines Brigade several times.

For its part, the units of the 56th Regiment of Air Force participated in the reflection of the Ukrainian counter-offensive in the Verbov district in the summer of 2023. It is also noted that the Russian military can rely on relatively experienced fighters in conducting assault operations in the Kursk region. Although it is unclear how effective these operations will be.

It is also difficult to say whether the Russians have enough to stop the Ukrainian operation in the Kursk region, or to protect themselves from Ukrainian counterattack, since the Russian command was likely to transfer only parts of the units to Kursk region, not the goals of formation. We will remind that the edition forbes reported details of the counterattack of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Kursk region.
