Kursk incursion: How significant is Ukraine’s advance into Russian territory?
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.

Zelensky has got further into Russia in 3 days than Putin has got into Ukraine in nearly 3 years 😂🤣
Pronaunced…..Sud-cha with my bad ukranian🤣
Great commentary as always.
Very amateurish reporting
Everything is fine. Ukraine is simply liberating ethnic Ukrainians and historical Ukrainian regions from the oppressive illegitimate putin regime. Ukraine will be happy to welcome the Kursk People's Republic, after a very legitimate referendum of course, back into its rightful place as part of the Greater Ukraine.
Bot comment's.
Wait mean it's not a illegal invasion of sovereignty nation .
Ukraine took more Russian territory in 3 days than Russia did north of Kharkiv in 4 months
'Soodga' thats the name of place (dg like in dodge viper – same sound)
This might lead to good neighbouriness if there's exchange of visits and gifts.
Can someone either win or lose like this is getting long and dragged out now and the rest of the WORLD pays the bills At least Russia does not have there hands out begging for money saying help me help me guess what there is an old saying HELP YOURSELF
So now it's an incursion, not an invasion?
Good for them now the Russians have a little taste of being invaded
Other Vloggers says the counter attack has begun and managed to stop the advance of UAF.
Pulling the troops from chasiv yar and the donbas is illogical they are problably getting them from their freshly new soldiers that they have manipulated into fighting for something so pathetic.
Slava Ukraini 💛💙 Putin will not sleep well tonight he must be regretting ever starting this war what a 🤡
Both sides should retreat to the pre-2014 borders.
NATO is marching us into a nuclear war. Stop this before it’s too late. Ukraine has zero chance of winning and the human race stands to lose everything
definitely Russia is not well defended, reaching out to a city like Kursk would be impressive, we'll see
HE’S BACK!!!!!

Who is this guy?

I think Ukraine have caught Russians with pants down 😂
Impressive.
aww naww..not "shovels" Clarke..he hasn't been right once yet
It doesn't take the brains of a professor to know when a rehearsal on foreign names is needed before going live on cam.
The 7 P's, Michael.
Works every time 👍
Faf
Again i don't know no way of knowing at the moment if ever exactly what has happened here but overall my take away if Russia continues to do nothing is that this "unhinges" the absolutely MASSIVE Russian military effort upon in Belgorod to defend the Border Region between Belgorod and Kharkov. My understanding of Russian military logistics is all still done by Rail although presumably upon in Belgorod proper this is not the case at all and hence why Russian vehicle losses continue to be mind blowing. If the entire Oblast of Kursk decides and this is an actual quote from those of this place "We are safer being defended by Ukraine" that sure sounds like the worst case scenario for Russian Occupation Forces currently in Belgorod. I don't really know what to make of this because Russia has always outnumbered Ukraine 1000-1 … just never at the point of thinking realistically about the taking Ukraine as an entire effort tho. One way to find out and thatvis to find out. Calls for going nuclear against Kursk obviously that isn't going to happen. People might have to get used to the idea of Russia LOSING actually which is hardly uncommon in War. Is funny to watch these hair brained clowns in the West STILL root for Russia right now tho. Does appear like Russia is actually siding with Ukraine at the moment. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
We’ll see if it holds next week
Oh look…the expert who so far has got EVERYTHING wrong…..Keep reading the script and picking the paycheck up Clarke
If Trump wants Ukraine to sue for peace then they need to take Russian territory before the conflict is frozen.
Hopefully Ukraine can keep the momentum, they’re looking very strong right now
