Fighting in Kursk region

Ukrainian military already controls more than 90 settlements in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation. We are talking about more than 1,200 square kilometers of enemy territory.

However, Ukraine is still seeking permission to use Western long-range weapons on Russian territory. Bloomberg notes that without lifting restrictions on long-range weapons strikes, the Kursk operation will be useless.

Meanwhile, The Telegraph writes that the Kremlin is using conscripts as cannon fodder in the Kursk region. It is noted that their death in battle against strong and well-equipped Ukrainian brigades will probably not save the Kursk region from possible capture.
