Kiev\u2019s forces have reportedly used Marder infantry fighting vehicles their cross-border incursion<\/strong><\/p>\n

German-made heavy armor pieces are rolling through the fields of Russia\u2019s Kursk Region again, some 80 years since one of the biggest battles of WWII in the same area, Bild wrote on Thursday, reporting on Kiev\u2019s cross-border incursion.<\/p>\n

The German tabloid, citing videos posted online, said that several Marder infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) have been spotted among the equipment used by the Ukrainian military in its offensive, launched early on Tuesday. The media outlet pointed to footage published by the Russian Defense Ministry, which shows IFVs being hit with Russian kamikaze drones.<\/p>\n

Thursday morning, the ministry published a clip showing the destruction of at least three Marder vehicles by Russian Lancet drones, among other strikes on Ukrainian military equipment. The armor pieces were hit while moving along dirt roads and through a wooded area.<\/p>\n

Posting on X (formerly, Twitter), Bild journalist Julian Ropcke said all three Marders \u201cfell victim\u201d<\/em> to Russian strikes just a few kilometers from the border \u2013 as the Ukrainian forces had sent them into battle \u201cwithout adequate air defense.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n

The news of German-made weapons being used in an attack on Russia\u2019s internationally recognized Russian territory has prompted a mixed reaction in Germany. The head of the German parliament\u2019s Defense Committee, Markus Faber, stated he had no issues with the development. Any weapons handed over to Kiev cease to be German and become Ukrainian ones, he told the Funke Media Group. He also described the territory of both Ukraine and Russia as a \u201cwar zone.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a highly dangerous development,\u201d<\/em> said Sahra Wagenknecht, the head of the newly formed BSW Party and a former Left Party leader. Chancellor Olaf Scholz should call the Ukrainian leadership and \u201cdemand that no German weapons be used in [attacks] on the Russian territory,\u201d<\/em> she added. Back in 1943, Soviet troops clashed with the Nazi forces on the fields of the Kursk Region in what has since become known as the Battle of Kursk. It was one of the deadliest episodes of World War II and one of the largest tank battles in history.<\/p>\n

Nazi Germany sought to achieve victory at the time by fielding its then brand-new armor pieces, including Panther and Tiger tanks as well as Ferdinand tank destroyers. The battle involved thousands of tanks on both sides, ended with the Soviet forces inflicting a defeat on the Nazi troops.<\/p>\n\n

Up to 1,000 Ukrainian soldiers have been involved in the incursion into Kursk Region this week, supported by armor that included several US-made Stryker armored fighting vehicles, as well as artillery and drones, the Russian Defense Ministry has said.<\/p>\n

Kiev\u2019s forces have lost some 660 soldiers and 82 armor pieces, including eight tanks, 12 armored personnel carriers and six infantry fighting vehicles since the start of their operation, according to estimates provided by the ministry on Thursday. Moscow\u2019s forces have stalled the Ukrainian troops\u2019 offensive and prevented them from getting deeper into the region, the Russian authorities said.\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
