- Ukraine has continued its invasion of Russia's Kursk region, where it is holding territory.
- An aim as Ukraine's forces ready for a long fight may be to "bleed" Russian troops, an expert said.
- Russia's losses in its war are high, with UK intelligence saying 70,000 Russians were likely lost in two months.
