Ukrainian aviation has already joined the fighting in the Kursk region

As Forbes magazine managed to find out, evidence has now appeared that the Ukrainian aviation is intensifying the offensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Kurshchyna in order to make it faster and more effective.

For example, the Ukrainian Air Force began attacking enemy targets in Kurshchyna with American JDAM bombs.

Yes, they recently targeted the Russian command post in Tyotkino, a few kilometers north of the front line.

According to journalists, F-16s are not yet involved in battles in the Kursk region, because the Ukrainian command considers such operations too risky for new Western fighters.

Forbes also draws attention to the fact that the advance of the armed forces on the territory of the aggressor country does not stop.
