The military explained what important tasks the Kursk operation solves.
Ukrainian fighters demonstrated their ability to defeat an enemy that is numerically superior during the operation of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kursk region of Russia. This forced the Russian Federation to transfer about 50,000 troops to its region. This was reported by the commander of one of the brigades participating in the battles, Serhiy Korotkykh, according to the portal «Focus».
War on enemy territory destroys their infrastructure, not ours. We fight where it is disadvantageous for the Russians and strike in unexpected places. Small forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine attract the attention of a large number of troops, - the fighter said.
According to him, volunteers do not solve the problem for Russia because it is forced to involve paratroopers and marines to counter the Armed Forces in the Kursk region. He provided examples of the 106th Guards Airborne Division and the 155th Marine Brigade:
Without the Kursk operation, all of them would have ended up on the Pokrovsky direction, which is much worse for us.
Soon, as reported, an enemy column got stuck in anti-tank traps in the Kursk region, which the Russians had built before the Ukrainian invasion in August.
Analysts from ISW in the USA explain that the Russian Federal Security Service ineffectively coordinates the actions of regular Russian troops in the Kursk region because they have experience in conducting special operations against small terrorist groups, not regular troops carrying out combined attacks on the front.
Recently, the Armed Forces of Ukraine continued offensive operations in the Kursk region. At the same Time, the Russians repelled more than 10 settlements.
It is worth noting that the Russians failed the Kremlin's plan to reclaim the Kursk region by October. Now Russian President Vladimir Putin demands the FSB to correct the mistakes.
Failure of the Russian offensive
According to Bild, the large Russian military offensive in the Kursk region turned out to be a failure.
