"The negotiations follow more than a week of heavy fighting in the western Russian region and what Ukraine’s domestic security service said was the 'biggest capture of the enemy that has been carried out at one time'
Kyiv has not disclosed the exact number of Russian prisoners its forces have captured in the Kursk operation but government officials and soldiers at the border told the FT that the figure is in the 'hundreds'."

@KoalaSalesman: Unfortunately, but the success with FPVs targeting ISR UAVs is an important development.

"A quarter of his 200-strong unit are convicts, released under a new scheme that trades sentences for service. Three months ago, the men were in prison. Now they are on their first mission, fighting inside Russia. Major Kishak says they have turned out to be the best warriors he has seen. On August 13th the unit lost its first man, a 24-year-old named Mykhailo convicted of robbery." @olliecarroll

"Gena, aka 'Wikipedia', is a grey-haired 47-year-old convicted in 2021 for murder and armed robbery. He says the booze got the better of him that day. He was turned away trying to buy more beer, a guard tried to grab his weapon and the gun went off. 'I went home, went to bed, and a welcome committee was waiting for me when I woke up.' His three and a half years in prison, he says, gave him a calmness that helped him when he crossed into Russia."

RT @John_A_Ridge: Probably says something about the availability and diversity of Russian fires in Kursk that they are calling for fire against individual Ukrainian main battle tanks with short-range ballistic missiles
It’s is D+9 (10?) and Tornado-S appears nowhere to be found.

@John_A_Ridge @GBU39SDB @JamesRaxz: This is very normal, at least for solid fueled missiles. My understanding is that they just inspect them and if everything looks good they will certify them for a longer period, without any SLEP.
