About 10,000 Ukrainian soldiers, with the support of tanks and aviation, have already advanced about 30 km deep, attacking the Kursk and Belgorod regions. About it writes The Sun. The combat vehicles were spotted at the border with a white triangle symbol - a response of Putin's tanks with an emblem in the form of the last letter of the Latin alphabet, which in February 2022 crossed the border of Ukraine.
Now the Ukrainian leadership has revealed the main reason for its plan - to stretch Russian troops. Dozens of armored vehicles swept the Ukrainian city with white triangles. After advancement in the Kursk region during the largest cross -border operation of the Russian Federation, it was forced to admit that Ukraine had penetrated to a depth of up to 25 km.
Tens of thousands of people left the border areas, forced to carry out additional evacuation in the Russian Federation, and a representative of the Ukrainian leadership informed AFP that the idea of the attack was to stretch the Russian troops and distribute in different areas if possible.
Security staff reported AFP on the conditions of anonymity that "the goal is to stretch the enemy's positions, to cause maximum losses and to destabilize the situation in the Russian Federation because they are unable to protect their own border. " It was also reported that Russian estimates that Kiev launched 1000 soldiers, too low, that thousands of soldiers participate in the operation.
The social networks have published a video of how Putin's troops seem to the Ukrainian military in the Russian Federation. In addition to the fact that it is a noticeable event that increases the moral spirit of Ukraine, the emergence of Ukrainian troops in the Russian Federation also serves as a reference to Western Allies, which closely monitor the war in Ukraine.
Franz-Shtefan Gedi's military analyst in a comment to The Washington Post noted that this is certainly a signal of the event that Ukraine is still capable of conducting offensive operations. The anonymous Western diplomat, which works in Kiev, expresses similar considerations. "Ukraine shows the world that the country is able to repel," he said, adding that such an operation has chosen the perfect time - before the election in the US to return the war in Ukraine to news headlines.
