Russia launched nearly 100 attacks in the Kursk region in the last 24 hours, according to the latest update from the Ukrainian general staff, in a bid to reverse Kyiv’s recent gains. It made up nearly half of the assaults reported by Ukraine over the last day across the entire, roughly 640-mile front line.

Ukraine's fresh offensive in Kursk comes nearly six months after Kyiv first sent troops into the western Russian region.

Ukraine's land forces commander said Monday that the army was "inflicting losses" in Russia's Kursk region after Moscow reported a counterattack by Kyiv's forces.
