Russia has launched a counteroffensive in its Kursk region to dislodge Ukraine's forces who stormed across the border five weeks ago.

In the early hours of Sep. 15, Russian forces launched an attack on Ukraine using two Iskander-M ballistic missiles, one Kh-59 air-launched missile, and 14 Shahed kamikaze drones. Ukraine’s Air Force reported the details of the assault later that day.
