My guess is it is a bargaining chip. They'll return Russian territory if Russia returns Ukrainian territory.

They're really after the Kursk Nuclear Power Station so that they can trade it for the Zaporizhia nuke plant.

That could be. If others impose a "peace talk" at least now they have something to bargain with and trade to get their country back. Unfortunately, peace talks with communists are only, historically, an opportunity for the Communists to reposition troops and move up supplies. Both Korea and Vietnam are shining examples.

Kinda like with Moslems?

They overran the gas pipeline (to Europe) hub there as well. The Power station would be a nice bonus.https://meduza.io/en/feature/2024/08/09/ukraine-just-captured-a-key-piece-of-pipeline-infrastructure-in-russia-so-why-is-gas-still-flowing

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Russians face tough choices in defending Kursk amid Ukrainian push

Adam Zygiel  •  12h

The Russians do not want to divert forces to the Kursk Oblast in order not to weaken their position on the front line, according to the Institute for the Study of War. For now, the command relies on units already deployed in the border zone.

"It appears that the Russian military command relies on existing units deployed in the border zone and readily available forces in the rear, most of which are units manned by conscripts and irregular formations to counter the situation in the Kursk Oblast," the Institute for the Study of War reported.

"The Russian military command may currently be resisting pressure to redeploy forces from other operational directions to prevent disrupting Russian offensive operations in eastern Ukraine," it added.
In response to the Ukrainian offensive in the border regions of Russia, Moscow has deployed forces from unspecified operational reserves. Units with conscripts and special forces, including the Chechen Akhmat unit, former mercenaries from the Wagner Group, and the 1st Corps of the Donetsk People's Republic Army, have been sent to the region.

"The Russian military command might transfer more experienced and better-equipped frontline units from eastern or southern Ukraine to the Kursk Oblast, but it will likely take a considerable amount of time for such units to reach the Kursk Oblast," the ISW reported.

However, the Institute notes that, according to one of the "milbloggers," that is, war bloggers, units of the 44th Army Corps from the Leningrad Military District are operating near Rylsk in the Kursk Oblast. The soldiers were involved in an operation in the Kharkiv Oblast. According to the command, this may indicate that interrupting the operation is a "necessary sacrifice" to defend the Kursk Oblast.  .  .

That power plant provides power to a large industrial area. Like, “Nice industrial area you got there. It’d be a shame if someone shut off its power.”

Made me laugh because I just yesterday got some spam email telling me that I am "preapprove" for a 'tractor loan'. Yes, I can buy a tractor and the government will back me. OK? I guess? I don't know? I guess now I will buy a tractor. What the hell do I care?

Ukrainians aren't close yet to Kursk, and Kursk is 350-400 miles from Moscow.
