President Putin's invasion of Ukraine has seen a surprise reversal this week, after an apparent Ukrainian incursion into the Kursk region of Russia.

Reports indicate that nine people were killed in the explosions, underscoring the deadly nature of this conflict.

As Ukraine's offensive pushes into Russian territory, Vladimir Putin's forces seem increasingly vulnerable. This week, Ukraine reportedly advanced up to 20 miles inside Russia, dealing a humiliating blow to the Kremlin.

The counterattacks have not only targeted military assets but also logistics hubs and villages, prompting Russian officials to declare states of emergency and conduct mass civilian evacuations.

The Russian Defense Ministry claimed it intercepted 75 drones overnight, including 26 over the Belgorod region, 19 over Lipetsk and seven over Kursk. Additionally, seven unmanned boats were reportedly destroyed in the Black Sea.

Putin has reacted with anger and defiance, condemning the Ukrainian attacks as a "large scale provocation" and accusing Kyiv of targeting civilian buildings, residential homes and even ambulances.

General Valery Gerasimov, Russia's top military commander, was reportedly summoned to face Putin and confirm the loss of significant territory.
