Whether this also means some movement on the #Zaporizhzhia and #Kharkiv fronts is something to watch in the coming weeks/months.

Russia has pulled reserves from key battleground areas in Ukraine, including Zaporizhzhia and Kharkiv, and from Crimea in an effort to hold back Ukrainian advances into Russian territory, a Ukrainian military commander told CNN Wednesday. https://t.co/bb9jzQIoxh

IANAMA (military analyst), but...

It seems to me that the factors that are making it slow and difficult for #Ukraine to dislodge Russian forces from their two little diversionary pockets north of #Kharkiv since they came over the border back in April (or was it May?) will work in reverse in #Kursk oblast. If #ZSU have their logistics sorted out, and have picked the location carefully for advantageous terrain, and they can quickly dig good trenches and establish minefields... I predict it will be slow and difficult for Russian forces to "kick them out", as #Putin apparently said today.

But... IANAMA.
