Russia complained that its 'peaceful' people don't deserve to be invaded

• Russia complained about Ukraine advances into the Kursk region, calling the people there "peaceful."
• The comment is ironic, given the attack is part of a war that Russia began.
• Russian territory has not been attacked much before, and this operation put it on the back foot.

Russia complained that the people in its Kurk region are "peaceful" and not fair targets as Ukraine advanced into Russia in a surprise offensive.
