Remnants of war left in border area as Ukraine claims more advances in Russia incursion
Remnants of war were left on the border area between Ukraine and Russia on Wednesday as Ukraine claimed more advances in its Russia incursion.
Aerial bombs, anti-tank mines, and a military flack jacket were strewn near roads in the Sumy region, along with destroyed anti-tank systems known as “dragon teeth.” Wildflowers and shrubs grew around them.
Ukrainian forces pushed on with their major cross-border incursion into Russia's Kursk region for a second week Wednesday, claiming to have taken more ground, captured more Russian prisoners, and destroyed a jet bomber while launching what officials said was a massive attack on Russian military airfields.
