The reinforcement did not help: the reserves of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation did not displace the Ukrainian military from the Kursk region - FT

Despite the reports of the Russian authorities that the situation under control, the Ukrainian forces could move 30 km deep into the neighboring country, journalists said. They also believe that this operation is aimed at strengthening positions during potential peace talks. Russia sent additional units of troops to the Kursk region, but this reinforcement could not reflect the invasion of Ukrainian troops, as it is in the material of Financial Times.

Journalists write that they have addressed the Ukrainian servicemen who are involved in the operation. After the border break in the Kursk region of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, they were forced to send there reinforcements, but the troops did not work out and the offensive lasts for the sixth day. The head of the Russian General Staff Valery Gerasimov repeatedly tried to reassure citizens and stated that the situation was under control, and journalists continued.

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation also shared personnel where with the help of fighters and helicopters Russian troops allegedly strike "columns of Ukrainian equipment", but the facts indicate that they write in Financial Times that "Ukrainian troops and equipment have advanced to 30 km. ". Now the Kremlin does not control the city of Sudzha near the border, as well as several more settlements in the direction of Kursk.

The Ukrainian military and political leadership did not comment on the events in Kurshchyna for several days, but during the evening address, President Vladimir Zelensky violated silence and stated: "Today he has already reported the head of Sirsky several times - on the front and our actions and displacement of war in the aggressor. Each of our defense forces that provide it.

But in a comment to the FT journalists, a representative of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine said that the Ukrainian side is not going to disclose the details of the operation, because first you need to wait for it to develop. At the same time, the material noted that the ultimate goal of the offensive of the Ukrainian troops remains unclear, but this operation in the Kursk region showed that the Russian defense of the border in 2 and a half years of the war is still weak.

Also, the events of the last 6 days demonstrated the necessary lift of the fighting spirit. But analysts are convinced that Ukraine launched an operation "Kursk" in order to improve its position during potential peace talks. We will remind, on August 11 it was reported that Russia throws up to Kursk military, who had to strengthen the Pokrovsky direction. The Atesh guerrillas recorded the movement of 10 KAMAZ with personnel in Donetsk region.
