As Russian forces retreat from the Kursk region, reports have emerged of troops looting their own villages as the Ukrainian military smash through Russian lines
Ukraine last reported more than that in the first days of August, before Kyiv's forces launched their cross-border attack into Kursk region.
An official in the Kursk border region of Russia on Monday urged more residents to evacuate due to the "very tense situation" in the area, where Russian forces are still scrambling to respond to a surprise Ukrainian attack after almost a week of fierce fighting.
Russian forces claimed on Tuesday to have thwarted a Ukrainian attempt to expand its incursion into Russia's Kursk region.
