00:00Russia goes on counter offensive in Kursk region, a little over a month after Ukrainian forces lightning incursion.
00:12The size, scale and potential prospects of the operation are unclear and the situation remains fluid as of today, but let's take a closer look at where the movement is.
00:23As per the available information, the counter attacks started along western edge of the Ukrainian salient.
00:29This is this area in red and they are also reportedly trying to advance from a few axis from the north, northeast and west.
00:36These are these yellow areas here.
00:38Now, look at this area here, west of Snagost.
00:42This is where Ukrainian forces reportedly began new attacks against Russian counter offensive.
00:47There are claims that Ukrainian forces are operating southwest of Snagost, which is roughly 5 kilometers from the international border,
00:55suggesting that Ukrainian forces recently advanced near the settlement, reportedly after crossing the border.
01:02Russian Ministry of Defense and Russian mail bloggers claim that those Ukrainian attacks have been repelled,
01:09but it is unclear how much force Ukraine has committed to the reported counter attack.
01:15The Institute for the Study of Forces available visual evidence suggests that Russian forces counter attacking in Kursk region
01:23may be using elements of more combat experienced units to conduct counter attacks,
01:28although it is unclear how effective those operations will be since some of these units have been heavily degraded and reconstituted many times.
01:37Russian forces may intend to temporarily bisect the Ukrainian salient in Kursk region
01:43before beginning a more organized and well equipped effort to push Ukrainian forces out of Russian territory.
