A surprise Ukrainian attack into Russia’s Kursk region raised questions about whether Kyiv’s forces violated U.S. restrictions on the use of donated fighting vehicles.
KYIV — Ukrainian troops battled Russian forces Thursday for a third day in Russia’s Kursk region, occupying villages and part of a town, in what has become Ukraine’s largest incursion into Russia since Russia’s invasion in 2022.
Russian officials, including President Vladimir Putin, have confirmed the cross-border Ukrainian attack, which stunned Moscow and appeared to involve the use of Western donated infantry fighting vehicles.
