In an attempt to retaliate after months of pressure ahead of President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration, Ukraine began a surprise fresh incursion in Russia's Kursk region on Sunday.

Since then, the Kremlin has reclaimed some of its own territory, but it has had difficulty driving out the invading forces—in recent weeks, thousands of North Korean soldiers have been sent in. Before officials in Kyiv and later Moscow's defense ministry confirmed Ukrainian forces had launched a new onslaught, reports of the new offensive initially surfaced from the accounts of Russia's prominent military bloggers early on Sunday.

Before officials in Kyiv and later Moscow's defense ministry confirmed Ukrainian forces had launched a major new endeavor to advance, reports of the fresh attack initially surfaced from the accounts of Russia's prominent military ...
