Ukraine’s Kursk incursion shows Russia’s weakness | DW News
The Kremlin says a state of emergency is in effect in Russia’s southwest Kursk region — where, for the past three days, Ukrainian forces have carried out one of the biggest cross-border incursions since the war began. Moscow says at least one thousand Ukrainian troops entered Russian territory on Tuesday. Russian forces have reportedly blocked them from advancing deeper. Officials in Kursk say around THREE-thousand civilians have been evacuated. Ukraine has NOT confirmed it launched the cross-border attack.
