Russian special forces reportedly used a gas pipeline to launch a surprise attack on Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region. The tactic involved moving through the pipeline to strike Ukrainian forces from behind, aiming to regain lost territory.
Russian sources claim the operation was successful, forcing Ukrainian troops to retreat. However, Ukrainian reports contradict this, stating that their forces ambushed Russian troops as they emerged from the pipeline, inflicting heavy losses.
The incident highlights the escalating intensity of the conflict, with both sides employing unconventional warfare tactics. The situation remains fluid as battles continue across the region.
