by times news cr

Moscow/Kyiv: On the orders of President‌ vladimir ⁤Putin,the Russian army has launched‍ a powerful campaign against Ukraine in Kursk,western Russia. The operation,launched last⁤ October,aims to recapture‍ the area ​of ​​Kursk,which Ukrainian forces had seized control of‍ in⁤ a​ surprise ‌attack in early August.But the Ukrainian army is still standing firm against Russia’s ​major attack, in fact it has also launched a counter-attack. Meanwhile, Russia has damaged many ukrainian tanks in an attack.Tanks and other forces of at least three Ukrainian divisions⁣ advanced into the southern outskirts of Darino and engaged the Russians, ​which engaged German-made 2A6 tanks. The former Soviet T-64 or T-72s of the recently‌ reorganized 17th Heavy Mechanized Brigade then joined the attack.

Russia attacked with drone

The Ukrainian tank advance was followed by a russian drone attack,⁤ which⁢ damaged at least one tank from each brigade. Its ⁤video also surfaced in‍ which the crew was seen coming ‌out of the burning tank.After ⁢this, in⁤ retaliatory⁢ firing, Ukraine’s 80 Assault Brigade shot down at least two Russian BMD combat vehicles.

Ukraine stakes in Darino

Darino was located ⁣on ⁣the right flank of the Russian army, which was ⁢maintaining the main thrust of⁢ the Russian offensive at Kursk. ‍if Ukraine ⁢manages⁤ to take control of Darino, ‍it could close the line of counter-attack to⁤ Russia. Russian forces are​ sending assault groups one after⁢ another ⁤along the road through Zeleny Shilakh, ‍four miles north of Darino. However, it is not necessary to exaggerate ⁢the Ukrainian attack yet. The three‍ ukrainian ⁤brigades have advanced only a ⁢few thousand feet.‌ but what is crucial⁤ is ‌that Ukrainian forces are capable of retaliating.

What are the strategic implications of the russian offensive in Kursk for the overall Ukraine conflict?‌

Interview: Analyzing the Current Military ⁢Situation in Kursk‌ – ⁤Insights from defense Expert Dr. Anna⁤ Volkov

Time.news Editor:‌ Thank you for ⁤joining us today, dr. Volkov. The situation ‍in⁤ Kursk has escalated‍ significantly, with President Vladimir Putin ordering a major Russian offensive. Can you provide us with some context regarding ⁣this operation‍ launched last october and ⁣its ‍implications ⁣for ​Ukraine?

Dr. Anna Volkov: Absolutely,​ and thank ⁢you for ⁣having me. The Russian campaign to recapture Kursk stems from their desire to regain⁢ lost ‌territory,‌ especially after the Ukrainian forces ‌executed a surprise attack in early August. This area is strategically vital, and regaining control⁤ over it could bolster Russia’s⁢ military position. Though, the resilience demonstrated by the ​Ukrainian ​army in this context is critical. They are not ‌just on the⁣ defensive; they are actively launching counter-attacks, which‌ complicates the Russian strategy significantly.

Time.news Editor: That’s ‍an ‍important‌ point. Can you elaborate on​ Ukraine’s counter-offensive tactics,⁣ particularly around the ongoing battles for Darino?

Dr. Anna⁤ volkov: Certainly. The ​battle for Darino is‍ pivotal. It sits on the⁣ right flank of the Russian ⁣offensive, which means‌ that​ holding‌ or capturing ⁢it ‍could⁢ dictate the ⁤flow of future military‌ actions.If Ukraine can seize ​control‍ of Darino,‍ they would ⁣effectively limit​ Russia’s⁣ ability to launch counter-attacks in that area. Currently, Ukrainian forces are ‌utilizing advanced military⁤ assets, ⁤including German-made 2A6 tanks, and the involvement of the reorganized​ 17th Heavy Mechanized Brigade‍ shows their ‌adaptability and resourcefulness.

Time.news Editor: We’ve seen reports of both losses and successes on the battlefield. What’s your assessment of​ the ​damage ‍inflicted on Ukrainian‍ tanks⁣ during the‍ recent⁢ Russian drone attacks?

Dr. Anna‍ Volkov: The drone attacks certainly ⁤highlight ⁤the evolving nature of warfare ⁢today. While ⁢there was damage—evident in⁢ videos showing crews​ evacuating burning⁢ tanks—it’s essential to consider that losses can happen on both ‌sides‍ during intense encounters. The fact that Ukrainian forces were able to retaliate effectively by downing Russian BMD combat vehicles demonstrates their capability to respond and adapt amidst‌ losses.The balance ‌of power can shift ⁢rapidly in such conflicts.

Time.news Editor: With three Ukrainian brigades ⁢making only ⁣minimal advances, how should we interpret the current military dynamic? Is there a risk of overestimating the situation?

Dr. Anna‌ Volkov: Yes, there is a real risk of exaggerating the perceived gains ⁣on ⁣the ⁣battlefield. While the⁢ advance of a ‌few thousand feet might seem minimal, the implications ⁣are⁤ more nuanced. the ability of Ukrainian⁤ forces to mount a counteroffensive indicates ⁤a strong defensive ⁢posture, which is crucial for sustaining long-term military⁤ engagements. We need ⁤to look⁣ beyond ​mere territorial gains and analyze the​ operational ⁢capabilities ⁣and strategies of ⁤both armies.

Time.news Editor: What practical⁣ advice can you give ⁢our readers when trying to understand this conflict​ and its broader implications for global security?

Dr. Anna Volkov: My primary advice is to stay⁤ informed and​ seek ⁣multiple perspectives. This‌ conflict‍ is not ​just about two nations but has wider implications for global politics, especially concerning NATO‌ and European security. Understanding military strategies and⁢ the human element—how soldiers are coping and how civilian populations are affected—can provide deeper⁢ insights into ⁤the ⁣situation.Engaging with credible sources, such as defense‍ analysts and regional experts, frequently enough provides a more thorough view of unfolding events.

Time.news Editor: ‌Thank you, Dr. Volkov, for your insights into this complex situation. Your expertise is invaluable as ⁤we navigate the unfolding ‍dynamics ⁣in Kursk and beyond.

Dr. Anna⁢ Volkov: Thank you for the possibility to discuss this critical​ topic. It’s critically important for everyone to stay engaged and informed.
