Russia battles Ukrainian troops for a third day after major incursion into Russian territory

ABC  

Russian forces battled Ukrainian troops for a third day on Thursday after they broke through the Russian border in the Kursk region — an audacious attack on the world's biggest nuclear power that has forced Moscow to call in reserves. Ukrainian forces swept through fields and forests towards the north of the border town of Sudzha, the last operational shipping point for Russian natural gas to Europe through Ukraine.

Former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev said the Ukrainian attack was an attempt to force Russia to divert resources from the front in Ukraine and to show the West that Ukraine could still fight.
