Report: Russia FLATTENING Civilian Villages In Kursk!
Video Summary
As a result of Russia’s invasion of the Kers region of Ukraine, Ukrainian commanders on the ground have reported that Russia is targeting civilian villages, with no Ukrainian troops present. This has left locals forced to hide in basements for hours, sometimes up to a day. The Ukrainian General Staff has also reported a consistent missile and aerial bombardment of the region since the invasion began about a month and a half ago. It’s unclear what Russia’s strategy is behind these attacks, but one possibility is that they are engaged in area denial. This tactics would involve flattening villages to deny Ukrainian troops use of them and to prevent them from establishing defensive positions. This would fit in with Russia’s larger strategy, as they aim to continue their 2024 summer offensive.
Some experts believe that Russia’s junior forces, with a chaotic command structure, may simply be making mistakes, such as misidentifying civilian targets as military targets. However, it’s also possible that Russia is trying to create a propaganda narrative by destroying these villages and then retaking them, claiming that the Ukrainian military has damaged civilian infrastructure. This would fit with Russia’s overall goal of portraying Ukraine as the aggressor and themselves as the peacekeepers. Regardless, the targeting of civilian villages has had a devastating impact on the local population, leaving them to wonder why they are being attacked.
