Russia has deployed additional tanks, artillery and missile systems to the southern region of Kursk in the fight against a surprise incursion by the Ukrainian military. At the same time, Ukrainian forces released a video purporting to show them controlling a town near the border.
A video posted on social media on Friday and verified by Reuters is fresh evidence of the damage caused by the Ukrainian counteroffensive, showing a convoy of about 15 burnt-out Russian military trucks lined up at intervals along a highway in the Kursk region.
