The clashes extended as far as the outskirts of Sudzha, a town of some 5,000 people about 10 kilometres from the border in the Russian region of Kursk.

Some 300 Ukrainian soldiers conducted an incursion across the border into Russia, engaging in combat inside Moscow’s territory on Tuesday, according to the Kremlin’s claims.

Members of Ukraine’s 22nd mechanised brigade launched an attack between the border villages of Nikolayevo-Daryino and Oleshnya in the Kursk region of Russia, supported by “11 tanks and more than 20 armoured fighting vehicles,” the Russian defence ministry said.

The clashes extended as far as the outskirts of Sudzha, a town of some 5,000 people about 10 kilometres from the border near Ukraine’s region of Sumy.

      From the linked Wikipedia article:

      In 2022 the network was bought by a company linked to the Hungarian government of Viktor Orbán. The acquisition was partly financed by funds from the Hungarian state.

          Or they want to have others say: “I thought you were defending, why are you crossing the border” and so discredit the defending nation. As if cross border defense is somehow immoral in the face of total fascism and expansionism…

          My man, I grew up on Orbán-linked media, it’s usually much, much worse.

          The often cited law of headlines around any government action in Hungary is:

          If it is unclear why the government does something, you can bet it’s either theft, narcissism, or demagoguery. If it’s still unclear which, they are usually trying to steal something.

          Just saying as I know you’re from the US, it’s going to be much harder to get rid of once it takes root. Please vote and get them out now, or your grandchildren will still be directly paying the price, and I’m not even joking.
