## Weekly Ukraine War Summary: Fighting Intensifies, Russia Deploys Cold War-Era Vehicles The ongoing war in Ukraine continues to witness intense fighting and shifting battlegrounds, with significant developments reported in recent days. ### "Gray Zone" Warfare in Selydove In the eastern Donbas region, fierce battles have taken place in the town of Selydove, creating a "gray zone" where neither Ukrainian nor Russian forces hold full control. The situation has resulted in heavy casualties and civilian displacement, highlighting the complexities of urban warfare. ### Maneuver Warfare in Kursk Meanwhile, in the northern Kharkiv region, Russian and Ukrainian troops have engaged in maneuver warfare, with both sides employing mobile formations and artillery strikes. The fighting has been fluid, with rapid advances and retreats as each side attempts to gain or hold territory. ### Russia Deploys Soviet-Era BRDM-2 Scout Cars In a sign of Russia's struggles to replenish its armored vehicle losses, the Russian military has reportedly deployed Soviet-era BRDM-2 scout cars to the frontlines. These lightly armored vehicles, originally designed for reconnaissance and patrol duties, are ill-suited for modern combat and their deployment suggests Russia is facing shortages of more capable armored personnel carriers (APCs).
