Ukraine moves military equipment near Kursk region | VOA News
Ukrainian tanks were seen driving in the Sumy region near the border with Russia Saturday, as intense battles raged after Ukraine’s biggest attack on Russian sovereign territory since the start of the war, in 2022.
Moscow launched a “counter-terror operation” in three border regions adjoining Ukraine Saturday, to halt Kyiv’s biggest cross-border offensive in the two-and-a-half-year conflict.
Ukrainian units stormed across the border into Russia’s western Kursk region on Tuesday morning in a shock attack and have advanced several kilometers, according to independent analysts.
Russia has deployed additional troops and equipment, including tanks, rocket launchers and aviation units to stop the advancing troops.
Russia’s national anti-terrorism committee said late Friday it was starting “counter-terror operations in the Belgorod, Bryansk and Kursk regions … in order to ensure the safety of citizens and suppress the threat of terrorist acts being carried out by the enemy’s sabotage groups.”
Under Russian law, security forces and the military are given sweeping emergency powers during “counter-terror” operations.
