Two strikes in two weeks: Ukrainian Armed Forces destroy Russian Marines headquarters in Kursk

Ukrainian troops are systematically hunting for the Russian 810th Marine Brigade in the Kursk region. According to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, on Tuesday, as a result of a "high-precision" raid , the headquarters of the 810th Marine Brigade in Belaya was damaged , this is the second strike on the brigade headquarters in two weeks.

As Forbes analyst David Ax writes, it's unclear what kind of munitions the Ukrainians used, but Belaya is only 20 miles east of Sudzha - so there are plenty of options, since Ukraine has a range of deep-strike weapons, from Western missiles to heavy attack drones.

"The besieged 810th Marine Brigade received a disproportionate share of this firepower," the analyst notes, recalling that the Ukrainians had previously struck the brigade's headquarters in Lgov.

Moreover, soon after the attack on Lgov, the 810th Marine Infantry Brigade was relocated to Plekhovo for a short period of rest."The 2,500-man unit needed a break. The 810th Marine Brigade and its sister unit in the Kursk counteroffensive, the tragic 155th Marine Brigade, were severely depleted by two months of largely unsuccessful assaults from the Kursk salient," Axe notes.

Thus, on January 7, the Ukrainian Armed Forces repelled another attack by the 810th Marine Infantry Brigade in the Pogrebki area.

"Since November, Russian marines have thrown at least two battalions of 400 men into Pogrebki, but have achieved nothing but losses," the analyst emphasizes.

Before the Ukrainian Armed Forces began to become active in the Kursk region, it became known that the command post of the 810th separate guards marine brigade in the city of Lgov had been defeated in the Kursk region of the Russian Federation. As reported, the enemy suffered losses among the officer corps .

Also recently, the Ukrainian Armed Forces struck a command post of the Russian army in Maryino, Kursk region. It is noted that these fire strikes are carried outprimarily to weaken Russia’s ability and desire to carry out terrorist acts against the Ukrainian civilian population. "The Armed Forces of Ukraine will tirelessly continue to identify and destroy military command facilities of the aggressor country," the General Staff of Ukraine emphasized.
