The clashes extended as far as the outskirts of Sudzha, a town of some 5,000 people about 10 kilometres from the border in the Russian region of Kursk.

Some 300 Ukrainian soldiers conducted an incursion across the border into Russia, engaging in combat inside Moscow’s territory on Tuesday, according to the Kremlin’s claims.

Members of Ukraine’s 22nd mechanised brigade launched an attack between the border villages of Nikolayevo-Daryino and Oleshnya in the Kursk region of Russia, supported by “11 tanks and more than 20 armoured fighting vehicles,” the Russian defence ministry said.

The clashes extended as far as the outskirts of Sudzha, a town of some 5,000 people about 10 kilometres from the border near Ukraine’s region of Sumy.

    Questions remain over the benefits of similar actions, aside from shock value and forcing parts of Russian troops to bolster their defences by moving troops from elsewhere.

    Aside from that, sure. I wonder why Euronews would be against Ukraine retaliating against Russia, other then the fact that it has been bought by an Orban linked company las year.

      They act as if forcing troop move is not good enough reason? Ugh

        “Now we simply cannot wrap our heads around why Ukraine would try to make Russia move troops from the frontline to go on the defensive on Russian soil! We simply do not understand!!”
