Russia’s counteroffensive in Kursk
Padmashree Anandhan
In the news
On 18 September, the Biden administration stated that it required more information from Ukraine to approve the usage of long-range weapons in Russia. According to the administration, relaxing the restriction might not have a large effect on the ground but trigger “great risk.” The US has allowed Ukraine to use its weapons in a limited manner for cross-border and counter-attacks. However, it has been under pressure from NATO members to let Ukraine decide on the extent of usage of the West-supplied weapons.
On 14 September, Chair of the NATO Military Committee Admiral Rob Bauer said: “Every nation that is attacked has the right to defend itself. And that right doesn’t stop at the border of your own nation.” Chief of the Czech Armed Forces General Staff, Lieutenant General Karel ?ehka said: “We believe that the Ukrainians should decide themselves how to use it… It's important to take into consideration every aspect, including the potential of escalation and other things.”
On 12 September, after a month of Ukraine’s offensive into Kursk, President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed reports about the Kursk. He said: "Everything is going according to our Ukrainian plan." Despite the Ukrainian offensive in Kursk, Russian forces continued to make gains in eastern Ukraine.
On the same day, Russia's Defense Ministry claimed to have captured nearly 63 square kilometres from Ukrainian forces. It claimed to have launched the counteroffensive on 10 September and the recaptured settlements including, Apanasovka, Byakhovo, Vishnevka, Viktorovka, Vnezapnoye, Gordeyevka, Krasnooktyabrskoye, Obukhovka, Snagost, and 10-y Oktyabr. A spokesperson close to the Russian military said: “The Ukrainians have also stopped bringing in new reserves . . . they’ve started to move around less and to dig in more instead.”
On the same day, Pentagon spokesperson Major General Pat Ryder called Russia’s gains to be "marginal."
Issues at large
First, Russia’s counteroffensive. Russian counterattack aimed to "open a land route" from Glushkovo to Korenevo (districts in Kursk) to deter the impact on bridges from Ukrainian strikes. This comes as the south of Kursk functions as a logistics point for Russia to resupply and was forced to install temporary bridges to prevent damage from strikes. Once the counteroffensive was launched in the Ukraine-held districts, the protection was ensured and Russia was able to stop Ukraine forces furthering towards Lgov, another town in Kursk located 80 kilometres west across the Seym river. According to the latest assessment of The Institute for the Study of War (ISW), Russian forces could aim for a temporary split in the Kursk Oblast to form tactical positions ahead of a coordinated operation. Since Russia is yet to gather enough resources for a full-scale attack, the operation seems weak, with a tactical goal to push the Ukrainian forces further east.
Second, Ukraine’s response. Ukraine’s objective in the Kursk incursion was to divert Russian forces from the eastern Ukrainian Donbas front. However, until now it has been unsuccessful as Russia advances in Pokrovsk city in Donetsk Oblast and other districts in the north and east of Ukraine. Earlier in September, Zelensky claimed Russia withdrew 60,000 troops to redeploy in Kursk. However, there have been no clear reports on how many Russian troops, air brigades and marine brigades are operating in the counteroffensive. According to military analysts, despite redeployment, Russia is observed to have needed resources to sustain the operation in Kursk and Donetsk Oblasts. Whereas, Ukraine’s difficulty in countering Russia in the east (Vuhledar and Pokrovsk towns) remains.
Third, the West debate over war escalation. When the debate first began on using West-supplied weapon systems in Russia, neither the US nor Europe provided clear approval. The US continued to maintain an ambiguous stance while NATO and European allies supported Ukraine in using the weapons in defence. This was mainly aimed at preventing the missile and drone targets coming from Russia. Since the Kursk incursion and multiple missiles launched far inside Russia, Ukraine’s demand for permission from the US to use long-range weapons in Russia began and was supported by the NATO allies. However, the US fears an escalation of war. Long-range missiles include the British-led Storm Shadow and the similar French-made SCALP or the US-made Army Tactical Missile System, ATACMS and ongoing Ukraine’s production to develop its long-range weapons. These are already in use, targeting the military hubs and Russian infrastructure in occupied areas. However, the military officials in the US observe that allowing Ukraine to use them inside Russia will not make a difference.
In perspective
A gradual escalation of the war. To see if this incursion could be an escalation point or not, it is necessary to look back at previous battles and the counteroffensive history of Ukraine and Russia. When Ukraine lost its spring offensive and the battles of Bakhmut and Aviidivka, it convinced the West to increase its air defence system support to counter Russia’s air strikes. Similarly, Ukraine is attempting to showcase its capability to launch an operation in Kursk and strike further into Russia to pursue long-range weapons to par with Russia’s aerial power. The West could follow the pursuit but to ensure the war does not expand outside Ukraine.
Second, Russia’s long wait game. Russia’s response to the Kursk incursion was initially viewed as undefended and slow but compared to Ukraine’s response to its eastern offensive, it has been quick to launch a counteroffensive in Kursk. As per the observations, the redeployed Russian units are not massive but it does not want Ukrainian forces furthering. The major objective remains to be capturing the Donbas region and it has managed to progress its eastern offensive despite the Kursk diversion.

South Asia
Pakistan: Army Chief pledges support to law enforcement personnel in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa
On 13 September, the military’s media wing released a statement about Chief of Army Staff, General Asim Munir’s visit to the newly merged Orakzai district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). His visit comes in the backdrop of police protests in the southern region of the district, over the death of an officer by unidentified assailants during a polio drive. He said: “Pak Army will continue to provide all-out support to K-P Police and other LEAs in enabling them to perform their duties in the newly merged districts.” He met with the troops who were a part of the recent counter-terrorism operation in the Torah Valley. In August, about 25 militants were killed by the intelligence-based operations in the valley. Four soldiers were killed, while 11 other militants sustained injuries. He stated that the Army will continue to assist the KP security forces in maintaining security across the province. He said: “The hard-earned peace achieved with nation’s great sacrifice would be maintained at all costs. The sacrifice of our martyrs strengthens our resolve to fight with utmost dedication and spirit of sacrifice.”
Pakistan: Two security personnel shot dead in Mastung
On 13 September, a group of tribesmen shot two security men of Levies Forces dead and three others sustained injuries in the Mastung district. The violence was carried out when the tribesmen blocked the Quetta-Noshki Highway to protest the arrest of a tribal elder’s brother and others. Separately, a roadside blast injured eight security forces in the Takhat area, Kalat district. According to the District Deputy Commissioner, unidentified culprits had fixed an improvised explosive device (IED) on the roadside. All injured personnel were transferred to a local hospital and security forces sealed off the area and launched an investigation.
India: Foreign Minister claims progress in border negotiations with China
On 13 September, The India Express reported that Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar claimed progress over the military standoff with China along the Line of Actual Control in eastern Ladakh. According to Jaishankar, about 75 per cent of the “disengagement problems” have been “sorted out,” while he underlined “the increasing militarisation of the border” as a major concern. The standoff has been ongoing for four years, with around 50,000 to 60,000 troops deployed by both sides along the LAC. The recent round of diplomatic talks in Beijing was to “narrow down the differences” and find ways for an early resolution. Similarly, National Security Advisor Ajit Doval’s meeting with Wang Yi in Russia conveyed the imperatives required to complete disengagement in “remaining areas.” Jaishankar earlier termed the India-China relationship “complex.” The BRICS summit, scheduled to take place in Russia, may provide further opportunities for dialogue on this issue.

Israel: IDF strikes Hamas fighters in Gaza school-turned-refugee shelter
On 14 September, The Times of Israel reported that the IDF carried out an airstrike against Hamas fighters “embedded within a former school in Gaza City.” The armed group’s fighters were using the city’s Shuhada al-Zeitoun School, which is presently functioning as a shelter for displaced Gazans, to plan and conduct attacks against Israeli troops. Although the military added that it mitigated harm to civilians, Palestinian media reported multiple casualties. Furthermore, the IDF accused Hamas of using civilian spaces for “terror.”
Israel: Continuing aerial exchanges between IDF and Hezbollah
On 16 September 2024, The Times of Israel reported that the IDF conducted airstrikes in southern Lebanon’s Rab al-Thalathine, Houla, Maroun al-Ras, and Blida regions. On the same day, the Lebanon-based armed group, Hezbollah, fired over ten rockets into northern Israel’s Ramot Naftali and Metula region. Although Israeli air defences intercepted most of the rockets, one of them damaged a building. There were no casualties. On 14 September, Hezbollah launched over 60 rockets into northern Israel’s Safed region. The armed group stated that the attacks were responses to the Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon the previous day. No Israelis were injured, though the attacks sparked fires in some areas, and Israeli air defences intercepted multiple rockets. On the same day, the Israel Defence Forces targeted the Hezbollah rocket launchers used in the attacks with drone and air strikes, destroying one launcher.

Israel: Sinwar congratulates Houthis on central Israel strike
On 16 September, Reuters reported that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar congratulated Yemen’s Houthi armed group for successfully striking “the heart of the enemy entity” with a missile. On 15 September, a ballistic missile fired by the armed group struck central Israel’s capital, Tel Aviv. The missile struck an open area, but nine Israelis were injured while running for shelter. Israel’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, stated that the armed group “should have known by now that we charge a heavy price for any attempt to harm us.” On the same day, Hamas welcomed the Houthi attack, calling it a “natural response to the Zionist entity’s aggression against our Palestinian people.”
Israel: Pager attack on Hezbollah
On 17 September, Al Jazeera reported that hundreds of pagers used by Hezbollah simultaneously exploded, killing nine people and injuring over 2,700 members of the group. An anonymous Hezbollah member called the incident the group’s “biggest security breach” since 7 October. The armed group blamed Israel for the explosions, stating that the Jewish State would get “its fair punishment” for conducting the attacks. On the same day, The Times of Israel reported that although Hezbollah had imported the pagers five months ago for secure communication among its members, Israel’s intelligence agency, The Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations (known popularly as The Mossad), intercepted the pagers before they were shipped. The Mossad then placed Pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), an explosive chemical, on the devices’ batteries and denoted them by remotely raising the batteries’ temperature.
Mali: JNIM attack on military training school
On 17 September, armed men targeted a military training school in Malian capital Bamako. The authorities blamed “a group of terrorists” for the attack. Later, an al-Qaeda- linked group, Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal Muslimin (JNIM), claimed responsibility for the attack. Several Malian security officials were killed in the attack. However, the number is unclear. Army chief-of-staff Oumar Diarra stated: “The terrorists have been neutralised. The sweep in continuing.”
Sudan: Starvation “everywhere,” says WHO chief
On 17 September, the World Health Organization (WHO) told BBC that starvation in war-stricken Sudan “is almost everywhere.” WHO director-general Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus stated: "The situation in Sudan is very alarming... the massive displacement - it's now the largest in the world, and, of course, famine.” He added that the war has displaced 12 million people and that global attention to Sudan was “really low.” He commented: "Imagine: destruction, displacement, diseases everywhere, and now famine.” He informed that close to 25 million people, half of Sudan’s population “need support.”
Europe and The Americas
Europe: Storm Boris triggers massive floods
On 17 September, the BBC reported on the devastation caused by Storm Boris in central Europe. Poland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slovakia and Hungary were the worst affected countries.

Donald Tusk, Prime Minister of Poland assigned one billion zloty for the victims and applied for the EU relief funds. The number of deaths rose to 16 with seven in Romania. Austria, the Czech Republic and Poland also saw casualties. Slovakia was affected by the overflowing Danube River with water levels exceeding nine metres. Meanwhile, the Czech Republic received the highest amount of rainfall. In Austria, the Ministry of Climate allocated EUR 300 million as recovery funds. The intense rainfall was supposedly due to climate change and atmospheric pressure. The weather forecasts indicated that the storm was expected to move further south into Italy to the Emilia-Romagna region.
France: Protest emerges in support of rape victim
On 14 September, The Guardian reported on widespread protests across France in support of a rape victim.

In response, feminist groups organized protests around 30 cities in the country. Protesters informed they were rallying against the rape culture prevalent in France. They claimed that the case of Pelicot would raise awareness over the issue. According to Deborah Poirier, a protestor, the case was “the height of horror.” Pelicot had been praised for her courage in demanding the trial to be held in public, rather than behind closed doors. Dominique Pelicot had pleaded guilty earlier and is facing a trial alongside 50 other men accused of raping Gisele.
Ecuador: Noboa seeks constitutional amendment to allow foreign military bases
On 16 September, Daniel Noboa, the President of Ecuador, posted on X that he was seeking a constitutional amendment to allow the establishment of foreign military bases in Ecuador.

US Department of State spokesperson Matthew Miller reiterated the US commitment to counter the proliferation activities. He stated: “The United States will continue to act against proliferation and associated procurement activities of concern, wherever they occur.” Chinese Embassy spokesperson Liu Pengyu responded: “China firmly opposes unilateral sanctions and long-arm jurisdiction” without an international legal basis.
