What is happening in the Kursk region of Russia?
In the Kursk region of Russia, which Ukrainian army invaded on August 6, things are moving fast. Ukraine already controls 100 settlements and the territory of 1,300 km², reported commander-in-chief Syrskyi.
Time to let Ukraine take Russia!
Russian military bloggers say that Ukrainian forces broke through defenses in Belgorod region — that’s the second Russian region getting invaded.
Meanwhile, Russian volunteers who arrived to Kursk region with “humanitarian aid” for the Russian army (food, water, socks and jocks for soldiers, because the Russian army doesn’t provide for its troops — officers steal all the money) — so, these “volunteers” complain about traffic police cameras, which continue to send them tickets for speeding — while they are driving over the speed limits to avoid drones or shelling.
The traffic police office responded that “war is war, but a violation is a violation” and fines that have already been issued in the system can only be challenged in court.
You know, in Russia the law is the law!
(Unless, of course, you are above the law, in which case you can break any laws you want.)
I suppose, the Ukrainian tanks must have scored hundreds of fines for illegal parking
The new map of Eastern Europe has just been leaked on Telegram.
On 24 February 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine, the world was discussing how long Ukraine would be able to withstand against Russia — 2 days, 3 days, a week?
Not many gave Ukraine more than 2 weeks.
On August 6, 2024, when Ukraine invaded the Kursk region of Russia, Vladimir Putin ordered “to squeeze the enemy out”.
On day 3, the chief of Russian general staff Gerasimov reported to Putin that the enemy had been repelled and destroyed.
That was more than 3 weeks ago.
Ukrainians are still in the Kursk region and keep increasing their stronghold.
And now , Russians are told by their TV channels that "The incursion into Kursk region by the Ukrainians is beneficial to Russia, because it closes the conversations about negotiations with Ukraine.”
Putin hopes that “the situation” in the Kursk region will somehow sort itself out, so he tries not to make a big deal about “mighty Russia” getting invaded by a “little, insignificant Ukraine.”
Being invaded by a foreign power is Russia’s “new normal”.
