Ukraine expected that Russia would transfer its troops from Donbas to the Kursk direction

According to the British publication The Economist, Russia is sending fewer military forces to the Kursk region than Ukraine would like. According to reports, the transfer of Russian troops takes place mainly from Kharkiv region and much less from Donbas.

"Their commanders are not idiots. They are shifting forces, but not as quickly as we would like. They know that we cannot expand logistics by 80 or 100 km," said a source in the General Staff.

The offensive itself, according to the publication, was planned for a long time, but some aspects of it indicate a certain haste in preparation. All three interviewed soldiers who took part in the operation learned about it a day before the assault. They were removed from other directions in the East and were not even allowed to rest.

During the offensive, there were frequent cases of friendly fire. Fighters marched 10 km a day, every night replacing advanced units in hastily dug positions in front of them. On the third day, they were hit by anti-aircraft guns, 12 people from the company died on the spot, many were wounded.

A source in the Ukrainian security forces says that by Saturday some units had advanced 40 km deep into the Russian Federation in the direction of Kursk.

"We sent our most combat-ready units to the weakest point on their border. The conscript soldiers clashed with the paratroopers and simply surrendered," said a source in the General Staff.

The main achievement of this offensive, according to the publication, is the increase in the morale of the Armed Forces.

"For the first time in a long time, we have movement. I felt like a tiger," the fighter told the publication.
