    Ukraine Destroys Weapons Depots of Russia’s 810th Brigade in Kursk

    Special Operations Forces (SSO) struck the logistics hub of Russia’s 810th Separate Marine Brigade in the Kursk region early on Thursday, Sept. 18.

    A nearly two-minute drone video released on the SSO’s Telegram shows a series of explosions to a Bach soundtrack. Kyiv Post could not independently verify the time or location of the footage.

    The strike targeted ammunition depots and a concealed site for weapons and military equipment belonging to the 810th Brigade.

    The brigade, based in occupied Sevastopol, has been actively involved in offensive operations in the North Slobozhansky direction (Sumy region).

    “The personnel of this brigade are involved in committing war crimes, including the execution of Ukrainian prisoners of war,” the Special Ops reported.

    In early January, Ukrainian forces struck a Russian military command post of the 810th Separate Marine Brigade in the Kursk region.

    The precision strike, carried out near the village of Belaya, was described as “high precision,” though officials did not specify whether Western-supplied weapons were used.

    Kursk has been a flashpoint since August 2024, when Ukraine launched a surprise incursion across the border, briefly seizing over 1,000 square kilometers (390 square miles) of territory. Russian troops have since retaken most of that ground, aided by reinforcements from North Korea.

    In May 2025, President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed Russia had lost more than 63,000 soldiers in fighting around Kursk.

    At the end of June, Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrsky rejected Moscow’s claims that Kyiv’s foothold in the region had been eliminated.

    He said Ukrainian forces still hold about 90 square kilometers (35 square miles) in the Glushkovsky district, calling it a preemptive operation to disrupt a potential Russian offensive.

    According to Syrsky, Ukrainian actions in April 2025 prevented Moscow from deploying roughly 60,000 troops – including airborne and marine units – to reinforce other frontline sectors such as Pokrovsk, Toretsk, and Zaporizhzhia.

    By July, Syrsky confirmed that Ukrainian troops had restored and were maintaining defensive positions inside Russia’s Kursk and Belgorod regions.

    “I emphasized the restoration of positions and our continued presence in the Kursk and Belgorod regions of the Russian Federation. We are containing a large enemy force near the border. The enemy will have no peace there,” Syrsky wrote.
