Russia-Ukraine war: 'Russia will do whatever it takes to fight Ukraine's incursion in Kurs

Russia will have to deploy 'elite' troops to fight Ukraine's incursion in the Kursk region, as it will do "whatever it takes" to claim back Russian ground.

Security and defence analyst Professor Michael Clarke has told Sky News the incursion is "getting bigger" and "seems to be 30 miles long and around 18 miles deep" which in military terms is "pretty big".

He said the battle will be measured "in days and weeks not weeks and months".
