Ukraine sets up military office inside Russia | BBC News

Ukraine has set up a military administrative office in Russia's Kursk region, where its surprise incursion into Russian territory continues, according to its top military commander.
Gen Oleksandr Syrsky said the office would "maintain law and order" and "meet the immediate needs" of the population in the area.
In a video posted on social media, Gen Syrsky is seen telling a meeting chaired by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that the office has been created "on the territories controlled by Ukraine".
Russian Defence Minister Andrei Belousov has said Moscow will send reinforcements to "safeguard" the population in the region.
Ukraine also claimed to have made further gains in its incursion on Thursday.

Though the F 16s are arriving ,pretty much right now and then to get French Mirage 2000s, and Ukraine still with and using the Leopard tanks and Challengers they received last year .those aren't all destroyed,despite russias propaganda saying so . As well US just announced a further assistance ,Ukraine with long term security agreement with the US ,as with at least 15 other Nato countries .

This is a huge strategic mistake on part of Ukraine and NATO. Firstly, they sent their best units into Kursk, they should have been to support their forces where they are struggling in the east. The idea was to get the Russians to divert soldiers way from the Donetz region but this has not happened. Ukrainians do not have enough men to hold the Kursk region. Now they Russians will simply grind away at best trained Ukrainian troops and in the long run term will hasten Ukrainians defeat. This incursion has given the Russians the chance to destroy the overrated Challlenger, M1 Abram’s and Leopard tanks. Most people commenting here have no clue about strategy.

We have sent humanitarian aid to Ulkraine 🙏🌈☀️🌏

[@Lundershot1]

The uk doesn’t have the capability to send peacekeepers, our active army numbers are only 70,000 you could fit them all in Wembley stadium and still not fill it up. We do already have humanitarian and charity support over there though

[@PeterPete]

Uk doesn't do peace 👍

[@m1leswilliams]

We already are.

[@daniboy0812]

‘The USA sets up military office in Russia’ - I’d say is more accurate. Ukraine couldn’t fight it way out of a paper bag without outside intervention. All to keep the price of energy up. UK said it can use British weapons - probably attached to British soldiers. Ukrainian soldiers were being trained for months in Brecon battle camp as I live there and they were everywhere in the town - you think the UK government isn’t going to oversee that training in real world

[@markbyford123]

They are not British tanks. They are Ukrainian tanks.

[@Nick186]

😂😂 they are British tanks home built here, and just because we sent 14 don’t mean they are Ukraines it’s a loan,because we won’t give them away for free. Ukraine will have to pay us for them. Ukraine has lost two of them since we sent them over.

REMEMBER: Trump said this was a "Brilliant move" on the part of Putin on the FIRST DAY of the war.

[@Heavenly_Fury]

Trump explained that the real problem is our leaders are dumb, they are weak and let Russia invaded, he "smart" because he knew the worst the west can do is sanction him hence the stock piles of gold he has. The US should've had troops in Ukraine before the war started that would've deterred the Russians and avoided senseless Ukrainian deaths.

While over the last 30 years the GOP has managed to win a few elections, there’s a reason why they haven’t been able to field a solid, intelligent, competent candidate; any Republican who is reasonably intelligent and competent understands just how toxic and delusional the Republican platforms have been and they want nothing to do with trying to champion them. The only people who want the job are the idiots and suckers. So every four years the smart republicans step aside and we have the Republican clown parade.

[@augustuskelley4170]

But yeah, this woman has a shit job, we all know what trump would do; throw Ukraine under the bus, give Putin a handy under the conference table, dissolve nato which would leave the USA isolated and vulnerable, and the economy would tank, and the American experience would die an unceremonious death at the hands of Christo-fascist criminals.
