A Ukrainian incursion into Russia's Kursk region poses a threat to a major gas supply line from Russia to the European Union, highlighting Europe's continued reliance on Russian energy.
European countries like Austria, Hungary, and Slovakia still buy gas from Russia through the town of Sudzha in Kursk, despite the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
Kyiv dispatched hundreds of servicemen backed by armoured vehicles, artillery, and drones over the Ukrainian border into the Kursk region, penetrating as far as 35km into Russia.
The energy implications of the raid go beyond Russia, with clashes near a nuclear power plant and a pipeline near Sudzha, impacting the broader region's energy supply.
