Denys Davydov, one of YouTube’s most recognizable Ukraine experts, sat down with Kyiv Post’s Jason Smart to discuss what is transpiring now in the Kursk and Pokrovsk directions while giving intriguing insight as to why Russia has failed to make significant gains. Overall, despite pretending that things are going great, Russia’s military leaders know that things are not going according to plan.What will happen next?Davydov, a native of Ukraine, argues that Ukraine’s efforts to destabilize Russia, including via drone strikes and the invasion of Kursk, could play a significant role in changing the outcome of the war.
