Ukraine's incursion into Russia is "big" and represents much more than just a raid, our security and defence analyst Professor Michael Clarke says.

Fighting has continued in the Kursk region of Russia for a fourth day after Ukrainian forces smashed through the border earlier this week.

There is much that remains unclear and Ukraine remains tight-lipped about what is happening - and what its broader goal for the operation is.

    It’s not an incursion. It’s a special military operation.

    It’s not an incursion. Ukraine launched a Special Liberation Operation for the Russian people.
  • Prigozhin showed how easy it would be for a hostile force to approach Moscow.

    MASSIVE EXPLOSIONS in Russia Tonight, the Defense Forces of Ukraine struck the airfield "Lipetsk" (Lipetsk region, Russian Federation). In the course of the attack, warehouses with guided aerial bombs and a number of other objects in the vicinity of the airport were hit. Several sources of ignition were recorded, a strong fire broke out and multiple detonations were observed. It is known that the Su-34, Su-35 and MiG-31 aircraft of the Russian Aerospace Forces are based at the Lipetsk airfield. The results of the damage are being clarified. In addition, our units attacked anti-aircraft missile divisions of the Russian Federation in the temporarily occupied territory of the Donetsk region. In particular, combat work was carried out against three enemy radars: two of the S-350 complexes and one of the S-300. Accurate hits and destruction of one S-350 air defense missile radar was confirmed. Regarding the other two, the information is currently being clarified. At the same time, it was recorded that all three enemy radars stopped working after the strikes.

    Now need to run a "referendum" and to attach this region to Ukraine.
  • @GreySectoid
    This guy is really good at explaining the situation.
  • @PhuNguyen-ww8su
    Ukraine now can fight with their ways which is offensive. Ukraine can hold territory or hit and run. Russia has more resources and larger military but also much larger territory to defend. In the Art of War, bigger doesn’t mean better. The West must not constrain Ukrainian military of doing their things.
