Ukraine’s troops vastly outnumbered and facing ‘huge swarms’ of Russian drones in Kursk retreat
Ukrainian troops withdraw from Kursk amid ‘huge swarms’ of drones
- Ukrainian troops are retreating from Kursk, Russia, facing overwhelming numbers and "huge swarms" of Russian drones.
- A senior Ukrainian officer reports being outnumbered at least three to one, and up to six to one in some areas.
- The main supply route into Kursk from Ukraine is cut off, making the withdrawal more challenging.
- While Russia claims thousands of Ukrainian soldiers are surrounded, the officer maintains the retreat is disciplined, though smaller units may be at risk.
- Ukrainian forces are still fighting in areas northwest and west of Sudzha, hoping to leverage remaining Russian territory for future negotiations.
