The situation in the western Kursk speech looks disappointing for the Russian forces. The 810th Marine Infantry Brigade, together with the 155th Marine Infantry Brigade, is constantly exhausted after unsuccessful assaults. According to the author of the material David Exa, the 155th brigade was destroyed and restored many times. They suffer losses through Ukrainian mines, drones and artillery. In December, two battalions of the 810th brigade collapse during a failed offensive on the cellars.
According to estimates of open source intelligence analyst Maxlen, these units are virtually destroyed. During the Christmas shelling of the headquarters in the city of Lugo, members of the team team could be killed or wounded. Russia uses reinforcements from North Korea, including the 11th Army Corps.

Despite the numerical advantage in the ratio of 60 thousand to 20 thousand, the Russian troops managed to capture only a quarter of the territory of the captured Armed Forces of the Kursk region. This slow and grueling campaign testifies to the considerable difficulties of the Kremlin in achieving its goals, the author sums up. We will remind, on December 29 Associated Press wrote that the Armed Forces in the Kursk region could neither retreat nor counter -attack.
