  1. Russia will eventually be forced to the negotiation table even if it takes Pokrovsk. It will have to give up most of the Kherson and Zarporizhzhya regions in order to get back Kursk from the marauding and unstoppable Ukrainian army.

  2. FRANCE24, I think you are got it wrong… you are not supposed to broadcast anything positive about Russia….only Ukraine. It's your bedtime, you should be quiet…

  3. Ukraine thought by entering kursk they thought russians will bring their toops currently fighting in frontline and will deployed in kursk so tht they can stop the frontline but they are compltly wrong, wht gona happen is ukraine will completed remove from kursk and the frontline just gona collapse thts all,.

  4. I knew it this gamble will cost clown lots.. putting his best men in Krusk and put weak his own important region .. Russia already captured new Ukrainian town NU York and they are only 11km away from Provorokhs… his aim to divert Russian soldiers from this region was failed where as all other western media done huge marketing of Krusk incursion 😂😂😂

  5. lol but I thought evacuations means ur country is about to fall and the leader is useless… at least that’s what Ukraine states when Russia does it

  6. Media euphoria slowly coming down , from capturing Kursk to buffer zone . The media and analysts will disappear in 2 weeks only to re_appear 3 weeks b4 US elections with another media spectacle.

  7. 0:51 this map is extremely incorrect and dishonest. The AFU controls a small portion, about 2-3% of Kursk region not the entire Oblast as shown here in dark red, and the Russians are 7-8 km from Prokrovsk in a battle of the bulge type attack which this map hides. EXTREMELY DISHONEST map.

  8. Now that Ukraine has also invaded Russia, does the west now have the morality to accuse Putin and Russia of invasion?
    Ukraine has shamed its sponsors and supporters. They have proved Putin right for saying Ukraine is becoming a threat to Russia.
