Mapping Ukraine’s ‘Completely Unprecedented’ Invasion of Russia | WSJ

Ukraine took control of hundreds of square miles of Russian territory, captured hundreds of prisoners and destroyed the Kremlin’s initial reinforcements. The offensive took place in the border region of Kursk, which sits on a stretch of some 300 miles of the Ukraine-Russia border. The attack sparked a mass evacuation and an angry response from President Vladimir Putin.

Never underestimate the will of a man defending his homeland.

History books 50 years from now are going to be spicy

Showing the russians they have to defend all over their border, and not just concentrate their power in the conquered territory

[lakeliving]

Russia go home and fix your failing country..

Huge moral boost not only for Ukrainian citizens but also for the soldiers. Looking at the videos, the joy in their faces! How good this must feel compared to being stuck in bunkers being constantly bombarded and not having enough resources to respond adequately. Journalists talk about thinning the lines as if soldiers were robots…this is the next closest thing to being given some vacation time!

It all began with somebody in Ukraine ordered a copy of Art of War from Temu.

Russian troll farms are working overtime 😂

The problem isnt getting across the russian border, its staying there.

[Spectacurl]

This looks more like a desperate final move than a well thought strategy

[marcusj]

How long is Putin's 2 week special military operation going to last?

[eternalskeptic]

The answer is Putin's absolute incompetence.

[borisreljanovic]

It was actually well-executed breakthrough. This was a really good coordination between Ukraine and it"s allies. First time that Russian territories were seized since WW2. We really live in some crazy times...

ยูเครนสู้ๆ ยูเครนทหารแท้ ทหารยูเครนกล้าหาญ

[petter]

Now Russia has the second best army in Russia 🇸🇪💕🇺🇦

Russia stop your bullying. Aggression of other countries like Ukraine without valid reasons is totally unacceptable in the modern world. From India.

#Putin was warned to leave Ukraine alone-
Ukraine is amazing! 💙
