What is Kursk About?

Well, there is a plan behind this. More Ukraine doesn’t want to keep it. So, the easy answer is that this is a demonstration raid. We got that somewhat confirmed today.

This is the official declaration of the Ukrainian government. It could be no more transparent. I must say, this was in my what are they dough kind of an answer:

❗️”Ukraine is not interested in taking Kursk region. We don’t need someone else’s, unlike Russia,” — Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Tikhyi

So what is this about? Apart from relieving the Russian Federation of at least 1000 troops, some rumors are double that. By the way, that’s an infantry regiment. I guessed some of this was about forcing hard choices on the Kremlin. Volymedia confirmed this today as well:

“Everything is going according to plan”

On August 12, the Russian president announced that the Ukrainian Armed Forces would be driven out of the Kursk region, all available forces must be directed to this task and, in a short time, they must reach the state border line, after which it must be securely closed.

After this, the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Federation assured that the offensive on Ukrainian territory not only continues everywhere, but its pace has increased by one and a half times.
