It is reported that the Kremlin is preparing for "months of fighting"

The Kremlin believes fighting to repel Ukraine's incursion into Russia's Kursk region will last months, and is trying to prepare the people for this "new normal", sources close to the Russian presidential administration and the government told the websites. Medusa and Verstka.

Russia is fighting a now two-week incursion by Ukraine into its border region, where Kiev's forces have taken control of 92 settlements and more than 1,260 square meters of territory.

These two portals said that the Ukrainian incursion has "shocked" the Russian elite, but now that the initial shock has passed, "they are used to it".

At the same time, the Kremlin is using its propaganda machine to try to prepare Russians for life in the "new reality" and "new normal," said the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

"The Kremlin proposes to convince the Russians that an enemy entering Russian territory will face 'inevitable defeat,' but regaining control of the territories takes time and the Russians must wait," said one source.

The Russian elite expects the resignation of those responsible for allowing the penetration of Ukrainian forces into Russian territory, a source told Meduza.

Ukrainian leaders have repeatedly clarified that their decision to enter Kursk is aimed at creating a security zone inside Russia, to protect Ukrainians from Russian bombing from across the border. As Russia tries to repel the Ukrainian incursion into Kursk, Ukrainian naval forces on Wednesday attacked a complex of Russian S-300 missile systems in Russia's Rostov region, the Ukrainian General Staff reported.

The General Staff of Ukraine said that the attacks on the S-300 missile complex near the settlement of Novoshahtinsky in the Rostov region were carried out by naval units of the army. According to the Headquarters, the consequences of this attack are being assessed.

"The Russian invaders are also using S-300 missiles to attack peaceful Ukrainian cities, destroying residential buildings and terrorizing the civilian population," said the General Staff./ Rel
