Some insight into one thing that's different about Kursk - the Russian conscripts in Kursk are the young sons of Russian Russian mothers that politically matter to Putin's hold on power. This is different from ethnic minorities from far flung "who cares" regions that Putin throws into the meat grinder in Ukraine.

Ukraine captures over 100 Russian, Chechen soldiers in a day in Kursk Oblast
As part of Ukraine's cross-border incursion into neighboring #Kursk Oblast, special forces from the SBU carried out an operation on a #Russian military base on Aug. 14 that resulted in the largest single capture of Russian troops so far in the war, according to the source.
The prisoners of war (POWs) belong to the 144th Guards Motor Rifle Division and the #Akhmat unit, a #Chechen group of forces that fights for Russia, the source said.
The source in the #SBU described the base in Kursk Oblast as a "sprawling, concrete, and well-fortified company stronghold," which had facilities including personnel quarters, a canteen, and an armory.

Kursk incursion presents Kremlin with border dilemma, ISW says
The #ISW said Russia had treated its border with Ukraine as a "dormant #frontline," that clearly did not have the level of military resources required to defend against such an attack.
"Russia's prolonged treatment of the international border area as a dormant frontline is a strategic failure of imagination," it said.
The Ukrainian military launched a surprise incursion across the border into Kursk Oblast on Aug. 6, bringing regular Ukrainian forces into Russia for the first time.
Although reinforcements sent by Moscow have begun to arrive on the battlefield, Ukraine has reportedly continued to advance farther into #Kursk Oblast.

Many Russian soldiers #captured in Kursk Oblast battles, Ukraine's state project claims
Among the captives are both conscripts and contract soldiers, according to "Khochu nayti," the project launched in January 2024 by Ukraine's military intelligence for relatives of the #Russian military captured in Ukraine.
"There is also information about the #dead whose bodies were not taken away by their comrades-in-arms during the retreat," the statement read.
The project published drone footage of what it presented as 32 captured Russian soldiers, adding that eight more did not fit into the frame. The Telegram post did not specify whether this was the overall number of Russian troops captured so far

UN reports over 95% of Ukrainian prisoners of war were tortured in Russia
#Ukrainian prisoners of war are #tortured from the very first interrogation. They are beaten with metal rods and sticks, stripped naked and severely electrocuted. This is horrible. This is undoubtedly the worst thing I’ve seen in 20 years of my career while visiting the POWs on behalf of the UN.
This happened to more than 95% of Ukrainian POWs. These are #WarCrimes

Ombudsman appeals to UN, Red Cross over alleged #execution of Ukrainian POW by Russia
A photo, which is circulating on social media, shows the body of a person with his head and limbs cut off. It is unknown when the photo was taken. The Kyiv Independent was unable to verify it.
Reports of Ukrainian #POWs being #tortured or #killed while in Russian captivity have been surfacing since the start of Russia's full-scale war against Ukraine. As of June, the Prosecutor General's Office said 28 criminal investigations were underway regarding the execution of 62 Ukrainian POWs.
"This is not just a violation of the Geneva Convention relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War, this is the behavior of monsters," Lubinets said.
The ombudsman asked international organizations to record another human rights violation by Russia and called on Ukraine's law enforcement to verify the identity of the killed person and the fact of the crime.

Polish Foreign Ministry suggests Hungary leave EU, NATO after Orban's controversial statements
"I do not understand why Hungary wants to remain a member of organizations that they dislike so much and that supposedly mistreat them. Why does he (Orban) not form a union with Putin and with some authoritarian states of this type?" Bartoszewski said.
"It is the principle that if you do not want to be a member of some club, you can always withdraw. Certainly, this is an anti-EU, anti-Ukrainian, anti-Polish policy at the moment."

Хлопчик і його мама були серед тих дітей і батьків, фото яких облетіли світ і які того страшного дня мусили рятуватися не лише від хвороби, а й від нападника, що свідомо нищить дитячі лікарні. Але свої життєво важливі ліки хлопчик таки отримав – уже в лікарняному бомбосховищі. І нині він, як і сотні дітей з усієї України, продовжує лікування в «Охматдиті», бо, попри всі втрати й пошкодження, одна з найважливіших дитячих лікарень країни працює. 📍Сьогодні побували тут разом із Президентом @zelenskyy_official. У День медичного працівника віддали шану загиблій лікарці Світлані Лук’янчик та її пораненим колегам. Через російську атаку «Охматдит» втратив токсикологічний корпус, іще чотири постраждали. Але план відновлення вже готовий і втілюється. Завдання амбітне: не лише відновити пошкоджене, а й модернізувати клініку, щоб рятувати більше життів. Тим часом Фундація Олени Зеленської @zelenskafoundation взяла на себе відновлення «Школи супергероїв» – навчальних класів при медичному закладі для тих маленьких пацієнтів, які лікуються довго й стараються не відставати від шкільної програми. Таких осередків уже 17 у лікарнях країни, але той, що був в «Охматдиті», також знищила російська ракета. Та нова «Школа» буде. І теж буде ще кращою. Насправді супергерої – всі дорослі та діти в цій клініці. Бо щодня здобувають перемогу для життя. «Охматдит» переможе. Вже переміг. 🇺🇦".www.instagram.com

Russia’s abduction of Ukrainian children is an established genocidal tactic during war
Russia’s forceful displacement of Ukrainians is a centuries-tested practice of conquest.
Von Guttner Sporzynski highlights that the tradition of abduction and forced displacement of the non-conformist population is deeply rooted in Russia’s history.
He starts from the 16th century, when the first deportations of citizens of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania started, then follows to 19th -century Poland, where around 60,000 people were deported following two anti-Russian rebellions, and ends with the 20th century:
“It is estimated that between 1936 and 1952 at _least three million people were deported across the western territories of Soviet Russia and transported thousands of kilometres away to Siberia and Central Asia.”_ Von Guttner Sporzynski concludes that the children who get abducted today from Ukraine may not find their way back home after the war ends.

34,000
Jews were rounded up and shot before being pushed into the ravine.
On 29 and 30 September 1941, the Nazis took almost 34,000 Jews to the edge of the Babi Yar ravine in Ukraine's capital Kiev and shot them all.
Present day Russian military shelling in Ukraine has damaged the Babi Yar memorial monument.
GENEVA/ VIENNA (16 March 2023) – Russian authorities have committed a wide range of violations of international human rights law and international humanitarian law in various regions of Ukraine, many of which amount to war crimes, the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine said in a new report Thursday.www.ohchr.org
