Ukraine Breaks Out From Under Killer Drones and Reestablishes Maneuver Warfare
Commentary
The Ukraine move into Russia may have started as a simple, small-scale raid for propaganda purposes, but it seems to have broken the period of static warfare.
Reports began appearing of Ukrainian forces penetrating Russian border defenses on Aug. 6 in the Kursk Oblast. As is usual in fast-moving combat operations, the scale and intent of the operation was unclear, but as of Aug. 15, the operation continued, and it appears to be growing into a larger-scale campaign that is having a significant impact on the entire Ukraine theater of conflict.
It is noteworthy that this sudden reversion to maneuver warfare is taking place on the same ground that the largest tank battle in human history took place in July 1943 and August 1943 during World War II.
