Heavy fighting in Russia’s Kursk region has escalated to a third day as efforts continue to expel Ukrainian forces from the area, the Russian defence ministry has confirmed.
According to Moscow, at least 1,000 Ukrainian troops, along with tanks and armoured vehicles, crossed the border into the Kursk region on Tuesday. The ongoing confrontation has resulted in the evacuation of around 3,000 residents, with reports indicating that at least four people have been killed in the clashes, as stated by Kursk’s deputy Governor Andrei Belostotsky.
While Ukraine’s military has not directly addressed the situation, President Volodymyr Zelensky hinted at the conflict, stating, “Everyone can see that the Ukrainian army knows how to surprise [and] achieve results.”
The situation in the Kursk region remains tense, with both Ukraine and Russia engaged in military altercations as efforts continue to push Ukrainian forces out of the area. More updates on this developing story can be found on www.bbc.com/news.
The conflict in the Kursk region underscores the ongoing tensions between Ukraine and Russia, with both countries grappling for control and influence in the region. The ramifications of this skirmish could have far-reaching implications for the geopolitical landscape in Eastern Europe.

Russia should provide free labor to rebuild Ukraine.
3000 dead Ukrainian men so far for nothing.
No sane person thinks Ukraine is going to accomplish anything with this PR stunt.
Can Netanyahu and Zelensky save the Rothschild's toilet paper dollar?
Stop puching ukraine for war
Peoples are dying
Ukrainian bots again on fire like last year lol
The Battle of Kursk was a major World War II Eastern Front battle between the forces of Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union near Kursk in southwestern Russia during the summer of 1943. Humanity WILL never learn.
Russia framing it as Ukraine being the aggressor.. You hve to wonder if Russian society as a whole is as dishonest as its government is.
Stop puching ukraine for war
Peoples are dying
All the russian bots went from helping elect trump, to talking shit to anybody that's pro-Ukraine.
God bless Mother Russia
R🤥ssia
Time for referendum in Kursk region?
Big news channels like BBC are allowed to show combat footage, but small channels are censored by YouTube. 👎 Everybody should be able to show us the truth of what is happening.
So how do they get re supplies, even if the decide to go further, what about food and communication? Whats their military objectives aside terrorizing civilians. When you have a commedians as a president, everything sounds like a joke.
Typical Russia. Using old footage to claim new victories.
How stupid. Have they still need money from the EU. Ask the people in Europe?
THANK YOU Russia and China for bringing some balance back into this world
Why is Putin complaining? Ukraine has done nothing different in Russia than Russia does in Ukraine.
Ruskies will now whine and show crying civillians to force the Americans to tell Zelensky to pull back.
Whoever is commanding Ukraine doesn't know what they are doing
Get your facts stright BBC. This is not an invasion. This is a special military operation to root out nazis.
Slava Ukraini!
Maybe hold a referendum on Ukrainian sovereignty in Kursk.
💩 Pootin said the war will only be fought in Ukraine .🤣🤣🤣🤣
Just for clarity…. All the clips they showed on the right were released by the Russian MOD and are of fpv drones hitting Ukrainian targets
Idk why they didn’t show Ukrainian footage of the event. There’s videos of Russian soldiers surrendering.
Ukraine should just keep going into Russia. Let Russia figure out if they want to gain more land or protect what they have
Let them hold referendum.🤣
Are they gonna come back alive from Russia territory?
Ukraine is willing to begin peace talks as soon as Russia accepts the reality on the ground and withdraws from the Kursk region. 🙂
As Nelson Munz from the Simpsons would say: HA HA! 👉👉
Map was wrong
Putin problems slava to Ukrainian soldiers.
🇳🇴🤝🇺🇦
I heard they attack with 1000 ukranians. Prety sure those 1000 won't survive. foolish act to gain PR. war was about to hault for a couple of month due to the presidential election of America. I think saving lives and playing long term role is important to ukraine since they are lack with man power. Almost all the young people passed away. above 40year men are fighting now.
