Ukrainian Armed Forces said on Monday they have breached another section of the front line in Russia’s Kursk region. The bold operation was carried out at the Kursk border by the 95th Separate Air Assault Brigade of the Ukrainian Air Assault Forces.

This marks the second Ukrainian operation of its kind in the Kursk region since Ukraine launched a  counteroffensive into the Russia border region. The Ukrainian troops released footage showing their forces navigating through engineering barriers, deploying airborne assault units deep into enemy territory, and engaging in fierce combat along the border.

The exact location of the breakthrough was not revealed for obvious reasons.
