Russia claims to fire on Ukrainian forces moving into Russia’s Kursk region
Hundreds of Ukrainian troops rolled into western Russia on Tuesday in what seems to be the embattled nation’s largest raid on its invading neighbor since the war began more than two years ago.
The Russian Defense Ministry initially said it had repelled the attack — with Gen. Valery Gerasimov, head of Russia’s general staff, telling Putin on Wednesday the Ukrainians had suffered hundreds of dead and wounded during the fight. The Defense Ministry also claimed that the Russian military “continued to destroy Ukrainian military units in the areas alongside the border in the Kursk region.”
