According to the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), Russian troops faced serious difficulties when counterattacking in the Kursk region. Despite offensive attempts, no significant success was achieved. Russian forces were only able to advance slightly west of Vishnevka and north of Krasnoyoktyabrskoye, which are located southwest of Korenevy.
The US Department of Defense also assesses Russian military activity in the region as insignificant, highlighting the lack of significant progress.
Meanwhile, Russian military correspondents report that the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) are conducting their own offensive operations in the Kursk region.
Ukrainian troops are attacking the flank of Russian units that have launched a counteroffensive, complicating the situation for the Russian army in this direction.
Recall that the Armed Forces of Ukraine responded to the Russian counterattack in the Kursk region.
The 46th separate airmobile brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported that its units are attacking the flanks of Russian troops advancing in the team’s area. Ukrainian forces continue to resist and attack enemy positions, although the exact number of forces involved in these operations remains unclear.
One of the directions of the Ukrainian counterattacks was the village of Kulbaki, located southwest of Snagosta and a few kilometers from the state border. According to ISW, Ukrainian troops have recently made advances in the area, which could play an important role in the development of the conflict.
Analysts note that Russian troops participating in the counterattacks operate in small units, up to company size, and may include elements of more experienced units. However, the question remains as to whether such units will be able to effectively resist Ukrainian counterattacks, especially given the significant losses they suffered during the fighting.
