Visiting Sudzha, Russian Kursk border town held by Ukraine DW 08/22/2024
Briefly

Ukrainian military spokesman Oleksiy Dmytrashkivskyi emphasized the operation’s intent, stating, "We don't want to keep this land, we don't need it. We've had to do this to show our enemy that they're vulnerable too, that they're not all-powerful." This highlights Ukraine's positioning of the incursion as both tactical and symbolic, aimed at altering the perception of military strength in the region.
Ukraine's recent military action in Sudzha, a town across from Sumy, is described by its government as creating a buffer zone against Russian aerial attacks. This operation, despite being a brief incursion, reflects Ukraine's ongoing strategic aims against threats from Russia.
