If you look at a map?

U CAN see how if Ukraine forces continue their push?

They COULD turn and drive to come in behind Russian forces opposite Kharkiv?

Maybe that’s why Russia has sent more troops up to Kursk….

 

Ukraine has captured 100 settlements, almost 600 servicemen in Kursk incursion

Ukraine’s top general Oleksandr Syrskyi…..

He said that one of the objectives of the Kursk operation was to divert Russian forces from other areas, primarily away from Pokrovsk and Kurakhove. “The Kursk operation diverted a significant number of its forces,” he said, noting that Russian troops had been drawn from Ukraine’s south. “As of now, we can say that around 30,000 servicemen have been sent to the Kursk front and this figure is growing.”

On Pokrovsk, a coal mining city that has strategic military value as a transport hub that Russia has been advancing on recently, Syrskyi said Russia was trying to disrupt Ukraine’s supply lines to the front. “The situation on the Pokrovsk front is fairly difficult … the enemy is using its advantage in personnel, weapons and military equipment, it is actively using artillery and aviation,” he said….
