ACADEMY SITREP – UKRAINE CONTINUES ITS CROSS-BORDER ASSAULT INTO RUSSIA August 12, 2024 | https://lnkd.in/eW4RUF7q What has Happened: -Last week, Ukraine launched a major ground assault with troops, tanks, and Stryker armored fighting vehicles into Russia, in what is the largest incursion into the country since the invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022. -Military analysts said the attack could be an attempt to divert Russian units from the front lines, thereby relieving some pressure on Ukrainian troops struggling to contain advancing Russian forces. -President Putin has met with his country’s security services to coordinate a military response to the attacks and called the Ukrainian incursion a “large-scale provocation.” -Ukrainian forces have captured over 300 square miles of Russian territory and taken dozens of Russian prisoners, while Russian authorities have evacuated more than 100,000 people from villages and towns in Kursk. -Zelensky finally acknowledged the attack on Saturday arguing that Russia had launched 2,000 attacks from Kursk this summer and it deserved a response. -News of a successful attack might help boost the morale of the Ukrainian people and its armed forces. -It was also reported that the Ukrainian military had established control over a gas transit station near the border, though any impact there could be minimal (both parties agreed to keep gas flowing) and gas exports from Russia into Europe fell from 45% in 2021, to 15% of all gas imports in 2023.
