The Russia-Ukraine war is in a critical phase, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky having recently reshuffled key members of his administration, in order to inject "new energy" into his government as the war with Russia heads toward a potentially decisive stage.
This reshuffle comes at a critical moment, with the war now being over 900 days
The humanitarian toll is continuing to rise, with a recent missile strike on a Ukrainian military institute in the city of Poltava and a nearby hospital having killed 55 people with 328 others wounded, as per Ukraine's Interior Ministry.
Ukraine began a surprise incursion into Russia's Kursk region on August 6 and continues to make headway into Russia's border regions.
This has drawn condemnation from Moscow, who have also criticized the West's support for this incursion.
On Wednesday, Maria Zakharova, Russia's director of the Foreign Ministry press department warned of a painful response after NATO backed the Kursk incursion.
"We would like to warn such irresponsible political in the EU, NATO and overseas that in the event of corresponding aggressive steps by the Kiev regime, Russia's response will follow immediately... and will be extremely painful," Zakharova said on the sidelines of the Eastern Economic Forum.
