The War in Ukraine

Videos are beginning to surface with Ukrainian troops in Belgorod Oblast. A new penetration?
I’ll wait for more on that before thinking it’s anything more than an opportunity optic grab. Right now it’s word of Georgian Legion in a single border village; if we see Ukrainian Army regulars pushing beyond we’ll know it’s maybe something.

Separate note, I’ve seen a few videos now of Ukrainian Army recovery teams hauling back broken vehicles. Interesting if indicator of logistical competence (they planned for this and had the kit in place), and confidence operating high value targets like recovery vehicles in Russian territory.
