Vladimir Putin's nightmare grows as 'Ukrainian troops storm another Russian region'
Express UK ^ | 9/10/2024 | Matthew Dooley

Ukrainian troops have been pictured in the village of Poroz in Russia's Belgorod region, opening yet another front after invading Kursk earlier this week.

Unconfirmed videos widely shared on social media appeared to show members of the Georgian Legion and the 252nd Territorial Defence Battalion in front of the village club in Poroz just 2km from the Ukrainian border.

While thousands of Ukraine's troops have stormed into Kursk Oblast to the north, this is the first time they have been pictured in Belgorod, opening yet another front inside Russia.

Poroz is around 80km (50 miles) southeast of Pehklovo in the Kursk region, which Ukrainian troops have also reached as part of their earlier incursion.

Unconfirmed reports suggest Ukrainian forces entered Poroz under the cover of artillery fire.

Kursk offensive has slowed.
your propaganda is NOT appreciated.
The Rus recaptured some territory in kursk yesterday and are still taking a few square miles daily in the advance towards “Pork Roast”...here’s a daily summary from neutral source DPA

Given that Ukraine has zero chance of holding any territory within Russia, the answer is no.

No, the big story is the Ukraine continues to lose ground on the actual battlefield, territory its not ever getting back, while they waste resources and manpower in Kursk.

You're like a baseball fan celebrating how well you're minor league team is doing while you're team is one of the worst in the league.

Why a border incursion they can not use as a breakthrough?
A) Propaganda victory to deflect from loses in the Donbass.
B) To secure funds from USA and NATO
C) Goad Russia into a brutal act that would bring in NATO.
D) To stimulate an Anti-Putin Movement in Russia.
E) Get Russia to pull back to defend the Motherland.
F) Give Ukrainian People a reason to cheer and hope for Victory.
All of this at a great cost to their reserves—wasting manpower they need if they hope to keep from defeat. It is a last gamble—Like The Battle of the bulge in WW II. Another bit of Mr. Zelensky thinking he’s a Napoleon—He isn’t.

The Ukrainians seized more ground from Russia in a few days than Russia has taken during an offensive in the Kharkiv region that began in the spring. It has cost Russia hundreds of tanks while Ukraine has lost just one.

How do the drones distinguish civilian supermarket resupply trucks from Russian Federation army resupply trucks?


Easy - there are no supermarket supply trucks at the front. And if there were, Russian troops would have already commandeered them and looted the contents.

“Didn’t you say something like that repeatedly over the past 3 years? Yet ...“

Thank you for remembering and giving me my just due for being 100% correct AGAIN in my Uke War handicapping. Russians have eradicated 500,000 Uke soldiers and have severely wounded twice that many. The Russians have humiliated NATO by rendering nearly useless ALL of their wonder weapons.

It’s not surprising that you make the same mistake your dunderheaded rainbow warrior heroes at the Pentagon repeatedly do. The Russians have as much Uke territory as they ever wished for when the SMO began. Yes, that is true. Check the peace deal agreed to with Ukes in April, ‘22 before you warmongers torpedoed peace. Russia doesn’t really want more land. Putin wanted to annihilate the Uke military so it would never pose a serious threat to Russia again. That has been nearly completely accomplished. I suggest you acquaint yourself with a very similar situation to Kursk, the Battle of the Bulge. The bottom line will be same.

BTW, where are those thousands of Russians troops who were supposedly on the Kursk border? You administration guys had better pray they aren’t in Belarus about to sweep the Dneiper to Odessa.

If you support open borders with Mexico you are on the wrong forum, fireman.

If you are able to glean this from my post... it suggests that you are experiencing some type of cognitive problem.
