4 days into a Ukrainian cross border incursion into #Kursk Oblast Russia, many experts including the #Russians are trying to not only figure out the purpose but mobilise enough forces to stall the advance. It is clear that this surprise attack was well planned and took the Russian armed forces by surprise. One the first day the Ukraine Armed Forces were able to capture 10 km and seize several villages. The attacked on two axis to the east and west of the #Sudzha border and captured dozens of Russian border guards. initially estimate dot comprise 300 troops, that number quickly swelled to over 1,000 according to the Chief of the Russian Staff General Gerasimov. In this video, I give general overview of how the invasion occurred and most importantly, what are Ukraine's likely goals. I also give my take on what the real purpose is before discussing the many disadvantages the Ukrainians could face and why this offensive could go very wrong if Russia is able to push the Ukrainian army out without diverting forces from its major offensive to #Pokrovsk. IN fact, the Ukrainian are facing en encirclement near the town of #Nuiyork or #newyork, which badly needed the troops, air defence and equipment that was used in this curious offensive to #Kursk.
