Ukraine’s Kursk incursion: Kyiv ‘capable of taking the war to Russia’ • FRANCE 24 English
One of the reasons Ukraine is seeking to create a buffer zone through its offensive into Russia’s Kursk region is to prevent Russian forces from attacking Ukraine’s border region of Sumy, FRANCE 24’s Rob Parsons said. Kyiv is also looking to “suck in Russian troops from other fronts, in particular the Donbas area where they’re putting the Ukrainians under immense pressure”, Parsons said. Moreover, Ukraine wants to demonstrate to its people and Western allies that “they’re capable of taking the war to Russia”, Parsons added.

This one it's a pure liar
The attack has failed
Ukraine was out of the US headlines for quite awhile. The Kursk offensive is just starting to put them back in.
Can he overthrow Putin
Simply laughable this article. Russia defeated by a small incursion for 1000 sq. Kms.
Russia occupies 120000 sq kms of Ukraine territory apart from Crimea adding more new territories of Ukraine everyday. This incursion will fizzle out in a couple of months but after that??
The Russia is able to take war to Paris! What about that!!
history knows Moscow not taken by Germany or France
This man is not serious 😂
Taking the war in to Russia. Interesting, but can Ukrainians sustain? What will be the outcome expected from this strategic move? What effect will this attack have on the overall war effort?
Eegads! French news seems about as removed from reality war reporting as the US commercial news medias.
NATO doing the job,, not Ukraine
Pure nonsense. This NATO incursion has been stemmed and those left behind (the Ukrainian cannon fodder being used by the US in this proxy war) are being decimated. The rest of the front is collapsing. Soon, there will be no Ukrainians left and the US and blackrock will own all that it left.
The whole point of this incursion is to get more money from the tax payers of the western countries.the commentator is lying the Ukrainians have been stopped in the Kursk region while the provisk region in Ukraine is collapsing.
Ukraine win will be in the best interest and security of Europe.
When school starts in a week or two the children in the Kursk region will be taught all about Ukrainian history by Ukrainian teachers. That's one advantage.
No, that's not Kyiv but Washington. Stop giving that much credit. This is NATO fighting inside Russia.
Lying collective West always lying
😂😂😂😂😂😂
New York has fallen and this incursion is a distraction. NATO is trying to save face.
One sideded analyst…. just polietical appointee of NATO ..
As we speak the whole Ukrainian front is collapsing
Attacking a not defended area because of a nuclear power plant. Ukraine wanted to take plant, do somethign wrong, blow it up and blame Russia. Western politicians and media suddenly come with story Nordstream 2 and Zelinski, what a coincidence. Just before minsters of defense of Russia and USA talk together (first time for new minster of Russia) and Russia did tell USA something, USA tell the world they did not know, but if true, they would tell Ukraine not to do it.
Ohhh CIA also told Zelinski not to blow up Nordstream 2? (Wall Steert Journal).
Still deluded about defeating russia
Your clown 🤡 zelensky failed to drag Russian best soldiers from other front … 😂😂😂😂 we need weapons 😂😂😂 … his gamble is not working
Achieving goals… why this propaganda channel is not talking about Ukrainian prisoner of war captured from Krusk
When russia makes it to the dnipro its over. But good luck with the morale campaign…
How many cities and towns has russia taken? But the ukrainians didnt surrender but now that ukraine has a few villiges russia is going to suddenly collapse? Okay…..
With the Russian territory invaded by Ukraine, Ukraine will establish a strong defense line to hold the land, using this as a condition in negotiations with Russia: Russia must withdraw its troops to their positions before February 24, 2024. Ukraine enters Russia at a depth of about 35km to ensure the ability to provide logistics for the front line and artillery range as well as the operating range of UAVs and FPVs.
😂 PR move by an expired general’ zensky. How many Ukrainian soldiers had to die for this show ??? He killed the peace talks. He opened the door for Russians to go in full force into Ukraine and take more territories.
Secrecy in War is an essential ability to winning it , Ukraine who are smarter , more novel in its tactics & are more cunning than Russians , also has the right to keep its plans to itself. SECRET.
The Nato nations, trust Ukraine to , Unlike The Kremlins leadership who do not follow the rules of war ARE Not keeping to the International rules of war whereas the Democratic Ukraine , are operating secretly , within the Rules of the GENEVA CONVENTION& its their free choice to keep operations secret .
A US serviceman has already betrayed Ukraines plans once so I have every sympathy with Ukraine .
The so called experts may be annoyed they don't know what the hell Ukraine are going to do next but NOR DO THE RUSSIANS KNOW & are attacking in the Fog of War which gives Ukraine a tactical advantage .
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦, 🇬🇧
Ukraines Leadership want's to show the Kremlin leadership is incapable of making war on its neighbours & Ukraine is teaching them a very , very hard lesson, No longer the Ullision that Russians are a great power , physically & technically .
Ukrain are proving this to be all hot air supported by FAKE NEWS BY the Kremlin leadership .
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 , 🇬🇧
irony? wight = rite
