Ucrânia lança incursçao nilitar de surpresa na Rússia
August 8, 2024 - Foi declarado o estado de emergência na região russa de Kursk para tentar repelir a maior incursão ucraniana em território russo desde que Moscovo invadiu o seu vizinho em fevereiro de 2022.
On August 3, up to 1,000 Ukrainian troops, as well as 11 tanks and more than 20 armoured combat vehicles, entered Russia near the town of Sudzha, Moscow said.
Vladimir Putin said the attack was a “major provocation” and accused Kyiv’s forces of “firing indiscriminately” at civilian targets with missiles.
The attack comes at a critical moment for Ukraine, which is steadily losing territory to Russia’s larger army and faces a potential collapse in U.S. support if Donald Trump secures a second term as president in November.
