Ukraine launched a significant incursion into Russia's Kursk region, marking the largest foreign invasion since World War II. This bold move has distressed Russian authorities and compelled thousands to evacuate, adding unprecedented complexity to the ongoing conflict.

Ukrainian forces have carved out territory in the border region, and despite fierce battles, Russian forces have struggled to regain control. President Biden views this as a strategic maneuver that presents a major dilemma for Vladimir Putin, affecting potential ceasefire discussions.

The White House maintains it was not informed beforehand and was uninvolved in the operation. Nonetheless, the invasion underscores Ukraine's persistent resistance against Russian advances, driving home its ability to stage significant military operations under mounting international pressure.
