A surprise Ukrainian attack into Russia’s Kursk region raised questions about whether Kyiv’s forces violated U.S. restrictions on the use of donated fighting vehicles.

Idiotic restrictions. Without the ability to strike equipment staging areas and troop rally points behind the lines, Ukraine has no hope. I am glad Ukraine violated these pointless constraints (if they did). It’s hard to fight the enemy with one hand tied behind your back.

I think this incursion is from a military perspective strategically pointless, but from a political perspective is probably useful.
