A Ukrainian incursion into Russia’s Kursk region is said to pose a threat to a major gas supply line from Russia to the Europe. Governor Alexei Smirnov told President Putin that the incursion was 12 km deep and that Ukraine controlled 28 settlements in Kursk. Ukraine’s top general said his forces control 1000 sq km of Russian territory.
Clashes have been reported near a nuclear power plant located in the town of Kurchatov. Just 70km away from Kurchatov, fighting was also reported very close to Sudzha, near a pipeline that sends Russian natural gas to the EU. A video shared by a former Ukrainian lawmaker on August 9 purported to show Ukrainian soldiers in control of a gas measuring facility in Sudzha.
