Media Point Out Important Detail Of AFU Operation In Kursk Region

It seems that Ukrainians are not going to leave the Russian Federation.

Ukrainian forces are strengthening their positions in Kursk region of the Russian Federation. This indicates that they are not going to leave the region, Forbes wrote on Sunday, August 11.

Forbes' sources said that Ukrainian and Russian troops have started digging trenches at their positions - excavators have been spotted on both sides of the front in the Russian Federation region. This means that "stabilisation of the front line and a long-term Ukrainian occupation of part of Kursk is on the table". This development could make the region another major front in Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine.

"Once the enemy takes shovels in their hands, in two days it will be as difficult to take the woodlands as it was near Avdiivka," said Russian war correspondent Alexander Kharchenko, calling Ukrainian trenches in the Russian region "the worst thing that can happen."

Now the Ukrainian Defence Forces have no difficulties with ammunition, so in order to push them back, the occupiers will have to capture one trench at a time, the material says. At the same time, the Kremlin can still organise a powerful counterattack before the Ukrainian forces are reinforced. However, Russian military columns that are travelling to Kursk region for reinforcements are facing attacks by Ukrainian reconnaissance teams, UAVs and artillery.

The Ukrainians have already deployed more than 10,000 troops in the Russian region. In turn, the northern grouping of the Russian armed forces is trying to move 10 to 11 battalions to the front line - that's only 4,000 servicemen.

At the same time, "on paper" the region is controlled by 48 thousand occupants, but many of them are located near Vovchansk in Kharkiv region. It is the withdrawal of Russian forces from other directions that may be the main goal of the Ukrainian offensive on Kursk, Forbes emphasises.
