Rusia lucha por rechazar la profunda incursión de Ucrania

By Jordi Bou

August 9, 2024 - El ejército de Rusia lucha por rechazar una incursión transfronteriza enla región occidental de Kursk, mientras que los reportes sugieren que las tropas ucranianas han avanzado hasta 35 kilómetros más allá de la frontera.

In one of the biggest Ukrainian attacks on Russia since the war began in February 2022, around 1,000 Ukrainian troops rammed through the Russian border in the early hours of Aug 6 with tanks and armoured vehicles, covered in the air by swarms of drones and pounding artillery, according to Russian officials.

Russian military bloggers reported Ukrainian advances as deep as 35 kilometres from the border, the Institute for the Study of War said on its assessment on Aug 8.

This represents the deepest cross-border advance by Kyiv since Moscow launched a full-scale invasion in February 2022.

Russia is now moving reinforcements to the Kursk region, state-run media report, citing the country's defence ministry.
