Ukrainian pilots fly F-16 warplanes in combat first time in fight against Russia
WASHINGTON — Ukraine has begun using F-16 warplanes in combat as Russia has mounted a massive aerial assault on civilian infrastructure, according to a U.S. official.
F-16s are the most sophisticated weapon the U.S.-led coalition has supplied Ukraine in its war with Russia. The White House and Pentagon had resisted offering them, fearing that they would be seen as an escalation by Russian President Vladimir Putin.
U.S. allies supplied the fighter jets, and Ukrainian pilots have been training for months in the United States to fly them. The first F-16s arrived in Ukraine early in August. The official who confirmed their use in combat was not authorized to speak publicly.

Why Russia has struggled to halt Ukraine’s incursion in the Kursk region. August 29, 2024 -- After 3-weeks of fighting, Russia is still struggling to dislodge Ukrainian forces from the Kursk region, a surprisingly slow and low-key response to the first occupation of its territory since World War II.
It all comes down to Russian manpower and Russian priorities. With the bulk of its military pressing offensives inside Ukraine, the Kremlin appears to lack enough reserves for now to drive out Kyiv’s forces.
President Vladimir Putin doesn’t seem to view the attack — or at least, give the impression that he views it — as a grave enough threat to warrant pulling troops from eastern Ukraine’s Donbas region, his priority target. He focus is on the collapse of the Ukrainian state, but he believes will automatically render any territorial control irrelevant,” wrote a senior fellow at the Carnegie Russia Eurasia Center.

Russia attacks Kyiv for third time in one week. Debris from intercepted Russian drones damaged several buildings in Kyiv overnight on Aug. 29, Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported. This comes as the third large-scale aerial attack by Russia against the capital in the past four days. Several explosions could be heard in Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast amid an air raid alert. Air defense had been active in most of central and northern Ukraine. Drone debris reportedly fell in at least three districts of the capital, causing a fire in one of the affected areas. First responders have been dispatched to the scene.
In the Holosiivskyi district, drone debris damaged the doors and windows of one of the apartments. No casualties were reported, according to the mayor. Kyiv remains a frequent target of the Russian attacks. On Aug. 26, Russia launched a massive missile and drone attack against Ukraine, killing seven people, injuring nearly 50 others, and targeting the country's energy infrastructure.

This Kursk op also weaken West's fears of escalating of wider war as invasion on Russian territory did not lead to any consequences like a nuclear war or a conflict with NATO. The nuclear saber rattling, used occasionally by the Kremlin, disappeared altogether as Ukrainian troops, according to Zelensky, took control of hundred Russian settlements.
Kursk incursion & Crimea strikes could ease some pressure on Ukraine’s Donbas Fores on going op in Kursk is first significant ground invasion of Russian territory by a foreign power since world war two, this is carried out directly by Ukrainian army units. Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi said troops controlled upto 1,600 sq kilometers of Russian territory in Kursk, so far forces had pushed 20 k/m into the region across about 50 k/m toward nearly to the highway & near to Unclear plant, a Russian soldier show Ukrainian military vehicle drive from direction of kursk with many Russia carrying blindfolded in Russian military uniforms, into Sumy region, amid Russian invasion of Ukraine, also 150,000 people had been evacuated or left Kursk on their own. Authorities are also planning to evacuate another 180,000 people from the region, he added.
Residents have recorded videos said authorities had not helped them to evacuate and called on Putin to interfere. Some more then 11,000 residents of nearby district in Russia's Belgorod Oblast have also left their homes, Governor said on Aug. 13.
Putin’s prestige -- Oreshkin says that since the start of the full-scale invasion, Kremlin trying to spread message saying Russia is “invincible & stronger than everyone," idea has been dealt a major blow."It's clear that things aren't going as well for Putin as he's trying to present it. "When he started the ‘special military op,’ he like tobe fast and painless and would bring fame but turned out to be lengthy, bloody and hopeless," political analyst based in Russia told Kyiv Independent Ukraine's control of Russian territory is a "very sensitive issue" for Putin, who "took it very hard." The analyst spoke on condition of anonymity due to fear of reprisals from state authorities. He thinks the Kursk incursion will not have any major domestic political consequences for Russia. Still, Putin will likely have to send significant reserves to the region to offset the blow to his reputation, he added.
Meanwhile, state propaganda is downplaying the Kursk incursion and trying to minimize the damage to the Kremlin's prestige or Vladimir Putin / Russian political analyst Andrei Kolesnikov argued "majority of the population is distanced from war, & their attitude towards Kursk (incursion) may be (sama sama) same as towards (Ukrainian attacks on) Belgorod," such events are unlikely to have any fundamental impact on attitudes towards Putin at this point," he said. "However, it's too early to draw conclusions – there have been no surveys or focus groups yet."
Kursk Oblast incursion would be ‘less necessary’ if Kyiv could strike deep in Russia with Western arms, Kyiv says
Destabilization? -- Speculation is rife on whether the Kursk operation will destabilize the political situation in Russia. Putin himself said that "the enemy will keep trying to destabilize the situation border zone in order to destabilize the domestic political situation in our country." As Russia has long been in a situation where anything can cause destabilization in an unpredictable way,” Russian political analyst Georgy Satarov told the Kyiv Independent.
Meanwhile, Kremlin has faced a backlash from the most hawkish & imperialist part of the population – pro-war bloggers. They have criticized Russia's leadership for failing to prepare for the Ukrainian operation and have fueled a panic mood.
Pro-war blogger Roman Alyokhin said on Telegram that he "just couldn’t believe what was happening" when he found out about the Ukrainian incursion.

What do we know for certain about the Palianytsia?.
All experts agree technology in the Palianytsia is not new, but Ukraine has managed to combine existing technologies was familiar & create a new weapon that could be used effectively against targets far into Russian territory it lifting wing technology, electronic control technology & jet-powered engine have been around for long time. All these technologies is combined to create an innovative product,” said Dmitriev. Most weapon’s characteristics are classified. Palianytsia is powered by a turbojet engine launched from a ground platform, rather than from an aircraft.
The exact range of the weapon has not been revealed, but according to the video Ukraine presented publicly, the Palianytsia is capable of reaching 20 airfields deep inside Russia.
Russian Savasleyka airbase, located 665 k/m (413 miles) from Ukrainian border airbase was four times struck during largest aerial attack against Russia so far on Aug. 14.
Ukraine had already developed some other jet-powered one-way attack drones before, some of them have not been named yet," Borsari said, adding that "some have been used sparingly against targets in Russia in previous months, despite lack of technological novelty in drone, the speed of its development has been impressive. Officials claimed Palianytsia took 1.5 years to go from blueprints & plans, to its first successful combat use. Video Ukraine presented publicly, the Palianytsia is capable of reaching 20 airfields deep inside Russia like Savasleyka airbase, located nearly 665 kilometers (413 miles) away from the Ukrainian border.

"However, it's too early to draw conclusionn."

Putin himself said"enemy will keep trying to destabilize situation border zone in order to destabilize the domestic political situation."
