0:21Now PlayingPresident Vladimir Putin accused Ukraine of a “large-scale provocation” by sending hundreds of troops into Russia’s Kursk region, the biggest assault on Russian territory since he ordered the 2022 invasion of its neighbor.
Putin opened a meeting with government ministers Wednesday by announcing he’d summoned defense and security officials to report on developments in the border region, in his first comments since the incursion that began early Tuesday.
European natural gas prices jumped on a report from Russia’s unofficial Rybar military blogger that Ukrainian troops had seized the key transit point of Sudzha in the region that carries gas via Ukraine to Europe. The claim couldn’t be independently verified.
Russia’s state-controlled Gazprom PJSC didn’t respond to requests for comment, while Ukraine’s gas transmission operator said flows to Europe were continuing as normal as at 1 p.m. local time.
