.@USNATO: Мы сталкиваемся с множеством новых угроз. Альянс продолжает делать то, что делал всегда: предвидеть возникающие проблемы. Мы адаптируемся, чтобы соответствовать моменту, гарантируя, что НАТО остается “непрерывным объединением” для защиты территории Альянса.

A panicked Russia is conveniently creating a new border with #Ukraine. It’s 45km back from its current Ukrainian border 😀. If after 9 days you have to start digging in along a broad front, then you sure don’t have confidence in your armed forces. https://t.co/7Ti8mVwwda

The Indian embassy here on Wednesday advised its citizens, including students, residing in Bryansk, Belgorod, and Kursk regions of Russia to relocate temporarily to safer places, citing recent “security incidents” in these areas following the intensification of the Russia-Ukraine war. The security advisory was issued hours after Russia’s Belgorod border region declared an emergency under heavy shelling by Ukrainian forces that are pressing a major cross-border incursion into the adjacent Kursk region for a second week.

Ukraine’s stunning incursion into Russia’s Kursk border region was a bold gamble for the country’s military commanders, who committed their limited resources to a risky assault on a nuclear-armed enemy with no assurance of success. After the first signs of progress, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy broke his silence and spelled out Kyiv’s daily advances to his war-weary public.
⚡️Russia offers workers up to $4000 to dig trenches in Kursk Oblast.
