Kursk Map Shows Ukraine Forces' Advance in Two New Locations

Geolocated footage and reports over the weekend suggest that Ukrainian troops had advanced in two locations in Kursk region—westward and northwestward in Kursk Oblast—amid conflicting accounts from Russian military bloggers about the operation from Kyiv.

Russian Telegram channel Notes of a Veteran said on Monday that the town of Sudzha is under full control of Ukrainian forces, while other sources claimed that Ukrainian forces had advanced south of the settlement of Korenevo.

"The Kursk region may have been chosen because it was a planned launch point for Russian attacks on Sumy Oblast, which has been heavily shelled for a long time," she said.

"Ukrainian troops might have achieved operational surprise. This is similar to what happened in 2022 when Ukrainian soldiers liberated the Kherson and Kharkiv regions.
