**Russian Military Suffers Devastating Losses in Kursk Oblast**
The Russian military has suffered significant losses in the Kursk direction, with reports emerging of devastating losses in armor and personnel. On December 2, multiple waves of armored vehicles were spotted approaching Ukrainian positions.
**Multiple Waves of Armored Vehicles Destroyed**
Six to ten armored vehicles in each wave approached Ukrainian positions, leaving behind fields scattered with burning wreckage. The Russians attempted to bypass a large local water reservoir to advance southward, but Ukrainian forces detected the convoy and engaged them with Javelin anti-tank missiles. The surviving troops were quickly neutralized by precision strikes from FPV drones.
**Russian Tactic Shifts to Infantry Assaults**
The initial Russian assault aimed at locating Ukrainian fire positions and checking how quickly they would respond. However, this tactic was met with failure as Ukrainian forces had anticipated such moves and extensively mined large sections of the surrounding fields. The Russians were forced to attempt a breakthrough along their former defensive positions, which resulted in catastrophic losses.
**Images Reveal Devastating Consequences**
Geolocated footage revealed the dire consequences of the Russian attacks, with some vehicles becoming immobilized on anti-tank dragon’s teeth and others being caught in the open and destroyed by Javelin missiles, artillery strikes, and FPV drone attacks. Wave after wave of Russian mechanized assaults ended in flames.
**Russian Units Run Out of Reserves**
The relentless Russian attempts to break through Ukrainian defenses around Tolstyi Lug have resulted in catastrophic losses, both in personnel and equipment. Ukrainian fighters confirmed that Russians switched to pure infantry assaults now, indicating that the Russian units lost so much armor so quickly that they ran out of reserves in the warehouses in Kursk.

Despite shifting tactics and exhausting resources, the Russians have been unable to overcome the well-prepared Ukrainian positions. This has underscored the ineffectiveness of their campaign in this region despite Putin’s orders and deadlines.
