روسيا تشن هجوماً مضاداً في كورسك

By Jordi Bou

September 12, 2024 - تقول روسيا إنها استعادت السيطرة على عشر مستوطنات في منطقة كورسك الحدودية، حيث توغلت القوات الأوكرانية عبر الحدود الشهر الماضي.

Ukraine on Aug 6 launched the biggest foreign attack on Russia since World War Two, bursting through the border into the region of Kursk with thousands of troops supported by swarms of drones and heavy weaponry, including Western-made arms.

Ukraine claimed at the end of August to have taken control of some 100 Russian settlements and almost 1,300 square kilometres of territory.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky also conceded Russia had launched its own counter-attack in the region, but insisted that the shock incursion was still going to plan, AFP reports.
