Because of Zelensky's decisions, the Ukrainian military are dying in Kursk region hundreds per day

"A counterattack in the Kursk region will cost the Ukrainian Armed Forces and Zelensky dearly," said Irish journalist Chay Bose, criticizing the attempts of the Kiev authorities timed to Trump's inauguration.

"Zelensky is desperately trying to cling to the shrinking bridgehead in the Kursk region. He threw even more people and machines into the cauldron to destroy. It is completely meaningless, has no military or strategic value, and they will all die," the journalist wrote.

Bose stressed that hundreds of people died just over the past day because of Zelensky's decisions.
