Tears For Fears are a New Wave band hailing from Bath, England who formed in 1981. They were one of the most commercially succesful British bands of the 1980’s, selling millions of albums and headlining arenas all over the world with their dark hued synth-pop.

Driving the band ever since their formation has been the partnership of Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith, who met while they were teenagers at the same school in their native city Bath, in Somerset, England. Both of them were very musically talented and had chemistry together right away, performing together as The Baker Brothers around local pubs and clubs when they were a mere sixteen years old. However, they soon grew out of their band name, and since they opened their gigs with a cover of Simon & Garfunkel’s “Mrs. Robinson”, the duo decided to rename themselves after the film that the song was made famous in.

As the ska/mod revival band Graduate, the band secured themselves a publishing deal and an extra three members backing the original duo. They ended up releasing an album and a single in 1980 but both tanked in the U.K, despite making some small waves over Europe. By 1981, however, both Orzabal and Smith had moved on from what they were playing in Graduate, and wanted to start playing music influenced by the likes of Peter Gabriel, David Byrne and Brian Eno. They disbanded Graduate and formed a band influenced by the most cutting edge music of the time called History Of Headaches. They soon came to their senses and renamed the band Tears For Fears.

Using the connections they’d built with their previous group, the band secured a record deal with Phonogram Records the very same year they formed and expanded the group to a four piece with the addition of drummer Manny Elias and bassist Ian Stanley. Their first single came out in the November of that year, but “Suffer The Children” failed to chart despite it being play listed by the massively influential Radio One DJ John Peel, and their second single, “Pale Shelter”, didn’t do much better. Things looked bleak for the band, but their third single would prove to be their making as a band. In November 1982, “Mad World” peaked at number three on the U.K charts and is one of the most enduring hits of the 1980’s to this day.

With a head of steam and masses of momentum, the band’s debut album, “The Hurting”, was released in March 1983 and spent 65 weeks in the album charts, peaking at number one and going platinum with ease. They had a further two top five singles in the U.K with “Change” and a re-recorded and re-released “Pale Shelter”, and the album, along with its three singles, saw high chart placements all over the world. Tears For Fears became one of the hottest bands in the world within the space of a single year, and they had the world at their feet. One would assume that this would be the point that they’d blow it, and truth be told, they nearly did.

Between late 1983 and early 1984, the band released two singles that were more experimental than most were expecting. The first of them “The Way You Are” stalled in the Top 30 and its follow up “Mother’s Talk”, did peak in the Top 20, but its release was delayed when the band had to re-produce the whole single from top to bottom after being unimpressed by the initial results. However, the bands fortunes were sealed in November 1984 with the single “Shout”, was yet another Top Five hit for the group in the U.K, and the album it came from “Songs From The Big Chair”, went to number two on the charts and stayed in the Top Ten for six months.

However, they’d done all that before. What they hadn’t done, up until that point, was make much of a commercial impact in America. “Songs From The Big Chair” did just that on its release in the U.S, hitting the number one spot on the Billboard 200 for five weeks and “Shout” topping the Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks the following August. They had officially made it, and ever since then they’ve been one of the most acclaimed bands of the 80’s, with songs like the aforementioned singles and “Everybody Wants To Rule The World” becoming pop standards for generations afterwards. They’re still a pretty unmissable live act to this day, and still come highly recommended.

Live reviews

My wife and I saw TFF at the TABLE MOUNTAIN CASINO (!!) in Fresno, CA almost 10 years ago now. They are freaking awesome!!

I was under the impression that since they were settling for doing casino venues, that they were on their way out. Boy was I wrong!!

I was introduced to their music by accident, when a roommate of mine back in 1985 put on his HURTING LP unbeknownst to me. The opening riffs of the title track absolutely entranced and mesmerized me!! I had never heard of them or of this song. It was actually a while later before I listened to the whole album....and years later still when I stumbled back into their library of everything after SONGS FROM THE BIG CHAIR (since I had tickets for that casino show). Its actually the LATER stuff that reeled me in, hook line and sinker!! As GREAT as the 1st 2 albums were, their later gems just blew me away!!!

At that show they busted out a rock jam that I wasn't familiar with....turns out it was SORRY. Holy shit!! These guys are unbelievable!!!

That song, and COLD, SOWING THE SEEDS, RAOUL AND THE KINGS, etc....launched TFF solidly into my 4th fave band of all time.

(Sorry, ZEP, FLOYD and RUSH will always be my trifecta at the top)

The anchor song on arguably their BEST album, EVERYBODY LOVES A HAPPY ENDING, "THE LAST DAYS ON EARTH", catapulted itself to my 5th favorite song of all time!!

I loooove TFF....and I hope to get to see them again!!!!

Report as inappropriate

TFF always puts on a great show, and yes, they are one of my top 5 bands of all time. I've seen them 7 times now and our daughter who is 19 now has seen them 3 times as well. Her first show was Little River Band when she was 3 months with ear plugs at the back of the venue up in the mountains of Colorado in Cripple Creek in 1999. Ironically, the current lead singer Wayne Nelson came to the back of that small venue and told the crowd, "this is truly a life experience for us all to be able to share this moment with your newborn child, we thank you for that." He was absolutely right, because, music has the ability to bring both friends together, and generations as well. TFF is the consummate band in their Genre to be that bridge, thank-you Roland and Curt, I'll be eternally grateful for your contribution and book of music.

Sadly enough, Robert Plant is an egotistical, narcissist who can't understand the concept of nostalgia and that concept of bringing us back together to those "good old days and times".

I'll hold on to a flicker of hope, but, time is starting to run out. Fortunately Mick and the crew are on slate for this coming summer, "pleased to meet you, hope you guess my name"...

The acclaimed duo Tears For Fears comprising of Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith were an important player in the British new wave scene of the 1980s. Following the release of their debut album 'The Hurting' is 1983 which topped the UK chart and won critics' praise, the band has been on a steady rise.

Despite having not released new material in over ten years, fans still swarm to the venue to see the iconic pair perform live and hear the classic music that has soundtracked many people's lives. With their distinctive vocal and melancholic tones, the staging is suitably sparse as the duo leads the accompanying band into position. The music created is ethereal, spanning and spine chilling all at once as favourites such as 'Everybody Wants to Run the World' are delivered with an expert level of poignancy.

All of the classics are included this evening including 'Sowing the Seeds of Love', 'Woman In Chains' and 'Head over Heels'. Yet it is perhaps there most iconic track 'Mad World' that receives the largest reaction from the crowd, the duo give this the slightest of tentative smiles as they clearly still enjoy playing this somber gem.

I saw Tears for Fears a few years ago at the San Jose Civic Auditorium in San Jose, California. The venue was relatively large, seating about 3,000 or so, and the band filled every single seat in that room; I don’t think that any of them actually got used, however!

The two-man band had a motley crew of assorted musicians backing them up, and they didn’t hit a sour note the whole night. As the group had its heyday in the 1980s, the crowd skewed older, but clearly hearing the group play brought them back to their younger years as everybody let loose and just plain had a great time.

The lighting in the auditorium was decent, nothing special; but this meant that it complemented the music, rather than distracting from the band. When Everybody Wants to Rule the World played, I’m pretty sure that absolutely every single one of the 3,000 in attendance sang every word – maybe when Tears for Fears sang that “Nothing ever lasts forever,” maybe they were excluding their own songs!

The duo is working on a new album, so when that comes out everybody should make sure to catch the tour when it comes to their city.

Fue un concierto genial, con las mejores canciones de la banda. Aunque ellos tienen un enorme repertorio de donde escoger, tocaron las más reconocidas.

Orzabal y Smith hicieron un gran show, la chica que les hace las voces femeninas (quién también abrió el show) canta extraordinariamente bien, cuando llegaron a Badman´s song (que es una de mis canciones favoritas) ella aportó significativamente a la voz que en el disco Seeds of Love hace Oleta Adams.

Fue genial, Tears for Fears es mi banda favorita de todos los tiempos, la escucho desde los 80´s, fue inolvidable, quedé esperando que durara unos 30 minutos más y que pudieran tocar algunas otras canciones más.

De lo mejor.

Wasn't sure how good they would be after all this time, but I wasn't disappointed. Tears for Fears were better than I've ever heard them before. Their voices were amazing and blended so well together. The accompanying singer was also fabulous as was Alison Moyet who was supporting them but can stand in her own right. Hearing all the old songs gave me a real sense of nostalgia. I can honestly say it was one of the best gigs I've been to in a while and I go to many. I've never heard an audience sing so determinedly last night to get them back on stage for an encore. It was so good I've booked tickets for another date to see them. Well done lads you did yourselves proud.

Saw Tears for Fears live at the Q and was very impressed! They performed a bunch of songs spanning their career. Their voices are still amazing as is their playing. Interestingly, they would sometimes speak between songs, which was cool to hear. The music was strong and power-driven and the feel of it was amazing, not to mention the coordinated light show and the opening. I'd love to see them again and plan on it when they come back. DON'T HESITATE SEEING THEM. THEY WILL BLOW YOU AWAY. I was very satisfied and more to say the least, glad to see one of my favorite bands. I will never forget the experience of seeing Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith live and in person.

Been to Delemere before always good when the weather’s alright. I’ve been to a ridiculous amount of gigs in my life and have a very eclectic taste. My best or favourite being The Cure and The Soundgarden and I would have to say that this was right at the top of my best gigs of all time!!

People might see Tears for fears as easy listening but at the time when they came out they were obscure and very left field from all that surrounded them. So pleased to see that Curt and Roland are working together again as they (as one) together are Tears for Fears. Pale Shelter rocked and I stole that moment in time on my camera phone

We had the pleasure of seeing Tears for Fears a few years ago at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles and they were awesome!! They sounded amazing and let me tell you....they still have their mojo! The entire audience was up out of their seats and singing along with the band. Kurt and Roland just keep getting better and better. We go to alot of concerts but that concert was one of our favorites. Now we can't wait to see them again this Summer when they come to LA on tour with another favorite power duo....Hall and Oates!!! Just when you thought life couldn't get any better!

Tears for Fears NEVER disappoints! They always sound incredibly good. We had seats in the front of the balcony at the Wiltern and I have never felt it shake the way it did that night. I was actually a bit nervous sitting up there. It was insane -- but in a good way.

Also caught them at Jimmy Kimmel Live. Had to watch from outside (peeking thru a crack in the fence), because we arrived just as they closed the gate. Stood outside and listened along with other latecomers...still a fun night and worth the drive. Just don't be late at Kimmel!

TEARS FOR FEARS

TICKETS ON SALE NOW Tickets $39.50 – $199.50

Tears For Fears – Roland Orzabal (vocals, guitar, keyboards) and Curt Smith (vocals, bass, keyboards) formed in Bath, England 1981.  With 30 million albums sold worldwide, performing to countless sold-out audiences, and winning various awards, the band represent an inimitable intersection of pop palatability, clever and cognisant lyricism, guitar bombast, and new wave innovation. Their 1983 debut The Hurting yielded anthems such as “Mad World,” “Change,” and “Pale Shelter,” reaching RIAA Gold status in the United States. 1985’s Songs from the Big Chair became a watershed moment for the group and music at large. Boasting the signature BRIT Award-winning “Everybody Wants to Rule the World,” “Shout,” “Head over Heels,” “Mothers Talk” and “I Believe (A Soulful Re-Recording),” it went quintuple-platinum and captured #1 on the Billboard Top 200. Slant dubbed it one of, “The Best Albums of the 1980s,” it was featured in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, and Consequence of Sound awarded it a rare A+ rating in a 20-year retrospective.1989’s Seeds of Love proved to be Orzabal and Smith’s last collaboration together until Everybody Loves A Happy Ending in 2004, which rekindled the creative fire between them. The band engaged in a three-year touring whirlwind across North America, Japan, South Korea, Manila, and South America beginning in 2010.

2013 saw them return with their first recorded music in a decade: a cover of Arcade Fire’s “Ready to Start.” The band returned once more in 2017 with the Rule The World best of collection, which once more catapulted the band back to the upper echelon of the UK album charts. The duo’s DNA remains embedded within three generations of artists on both subtle and overt levels. Quietly casting a shadow over rock, hip-hop, electronic dance music, indie, and beyond, The Weeknd infused “Pale Shelter” into Starboy’s “Secrets,” David Guetta sampled “Change” for “Always,” and Drake utilized “Ideas as Opiates” as the foundation for “Lust For Life,” while Ally Brooke Hernandez, Adam Lambert, and Gary Jules recorded popular covers of “Mad World” and Disturbed took on “Shout,” and that’s only to name a few. Lorde cut a haunting cover of “Everybody Wants To Rule The World” for the Soundtrack of the blockbuster The Hunger Games – Catching Fire, which Tears For Fears gleefully would use as intro music live and thus bring everything full circle.

Meanwhile, classic songs figure prominently everywhere from The Wire and Donnie Darko to Straight Outta Compton and Mr. Robot. Long before they became a cultural cornerstone Tears For Fears simply consisted of two school friends growing up in Bath, Somerset UK.

With the release of their first album in almost 20 years The Tipping Point in 2022, the 40th anniversary of The Hurting and with more touring on the horizon, Orzabal and Smith remain as loud as ever, while yet another generation gets ready to “Shout” with them all over again.

Tears for Fears/Garbage’s The Tipping Point Tour: Sowing the Seeds of memories again

Live review.

By Chyrisse Tabone, Rock At Night Tampa

Live Review: Tears For Fears and Garbage – Mid-Florida Credit Union Amphitheatre, Tampa, Florida – June 10, 2022

The Tears for Fears and Garbage The Tipping Point Tour concert merged two decades of my life into one evening last night at the Mid-Florida Credit Union Amphitheatre in Tampa, Florida.  In the 1980s, one could not escape a Tears for Fears video on MTV and in the mid- to late-1990s, Garbage ruled the airwaves. Last night was particularly special because the last time I saw Tears for Fears was  in 1990s during their The Seeds of Love tour. Actually owning a collection of Garbage CDs and being a long-time admirer of Shirley Manson, I had never seen them in concert. The band took a hiatus from touring in the early millennium ramped up again in the last decade. What can I say about Shirley? A feminist icon and vocal supporter of equality with a “don’t fuck with me” attitude. Enough said.

On the evening of June 10 th , the air was humid and the sky was overcast, the city enduring one of its daily summer rains. With the venue being an amphitheatre, a good prayer to the rain goddess was in order—and she listened.  Promptly starting at 7:30 p.m. Manson, wearing a white tunic, leggings, and her bright orange hair pulled up into a pony tail walked to each side stage, singing to the crowd.  Butch Vig, often smiling and looking animated, manned the drums while stoic Eric Avery, nimbly plucked the bass strings. Duke Erikson and Steve Marker manned the guitars at the side stages.

Garbage began with performing more recent songs “Automatic Systematic Habit” and “Men Who Rule the World”.  The crowd lapped up “Stupid Girl”, singing along with the chorus. “Wicked Ways” melded into a chorus of Depeche Mode’s “Personal Jesus”.

While entranced and fixated on the band, I could not help but notice the two girls sitting in front of me. They were immersed in shopping for clothes on their cell phone, pointing at jackets and clothing on the screen, unaware a concert was in progress. Utterly shocked, I figured I would out them for their rudeness.  So, if the girl with the compass rose and budgie tattoos on her back is reading this, shame on you.

Back to the concert, Manson dedicated “Queer” saying, “to all the LGBTQ people. We love you.” Then, asking the crowd, “How often in your life have you had a real bona fide love song sung to you?” A few raised their hands.  She scoffed, “Oh, fuck it. We’ll play it anyway,” before diving into the James Bond theme “The World Is Not Enough”.

After singing the first line of “Wolves”, Manson asked the band to “stop” saying, “I had a break of concentration. I need to start the song all over again.” With the band smiling, she continues speaking, as her Scottish accent becomes apparent, “I started thinking of stupid shit. I fucked up the first line.” This moment was very real as Manson’s authentic personality shone, endearing the crowd to her even more.

The concert continued with “Cherry Lips (Go Baby Go!)” which took me back to memories of dancing at rave bars in Amsterdam. Rounding out the set was “Push It” and “You Look so Fine”. Manson bid farewell to the crowd saying, “We wish you all love, happiness, and peace”.

Overall, I was impressed with the sound quality of the band.  They were technically impressive “live” and Manson’s voice is even better in person. They left the stage making me yearn for more and revisit my Garbage 2.0 CD.

Tears for Fears hit the stage, sounding full and orchestral, a quality they are known for.  The stage was smoky and often dim, as the band sounded ever-so-good as the last time I saw them, albeit, a bit older. Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith’s voices were smooth and perfect, still hitting the high notes, and sailing through familiar songs.

What has always attracted to me to Tears for Fears in my youth is their full sound, pop and dance music sensibility, yet very deep metaphoric lyrics.  They show it is possible to compose infectious dance rhythms with subliminal, politic musings concurrently. “Seeds of Love” is even more relevant today than when penned over 40 years ago.

Smith chatted with the crowd, saying “Last time a year ago, I came here to Tampa was to celebrate a friend’s 60 th birthday.  We have a new album out called The Tipping Point . Maybe go have a listen.”

The Tipping Point , which was released in February, is the first album the duo has recorded in 17 years.  Sometimes it takes maturity, experience, and the right timing to create a masterpiece—and that it is. The lyrics are still biting criticisms of society submerged in the band’s ‘big sound’ but also poignant and thought provoking.

The band performed “Long Long, Long Time” and “Break the Man”.  The audience was standing and dancing to my favorite “My Demons”.

The  ballads “Rivers of Mercy”, the classic “Suffer the Children”, and “Woman in Chains” showcased back-up singer Laura Evans’ voice. Smith noted, saying “And this is only her second show.”

The show ended with familiar classics like “Mad World”, “Pale Shelter”, “Head Over Heals/Broken”, and  of course, “Shout”.

Thinking back on the concert a day later, I am still reveling in the aftermath.  The music was stellar, the bands never sounded better—voice-wise and musically—and it makes me reflect on how timeless the music really is.

The first time I heard Garbage in the 90s I remember thinking, “This band is different. What a unique sound—and it has a nice hard edge.” It became the soundtrack for my life in the late-90s—traveling to Europe and Asia, dancing at rave bars in Amsterdam. Tears For Fears remind me of grad school, driving around in my Fiero, dancing at night clubs—and simply living life.

Thanks, Tears for Fears and Garbage for making me feel like that again—if not for a night.

We're pausing our live coverage of the war in Ukraine.

We'll be back with more updates and analysis tomorrow, but before we go, here's a recap of the key developments that took place today.

Russia unleashed 236 drones and missiles in a massive attack on Ukraine. Seven people were killed and 15 regions were struck, with explosions heard in the capital, Kyiv. Ukraine said hypersonic missiles were used in the assault.

Ukrainian officials called on Western allies to provide air defence resources and to allow the long-range use of their weapons on targets inside Russia.

One of the drones likely strayed into Polish territory , leading 100 soldiers to search for the equipment, said Jacek Goryszewski, spokesperson for the Polish army's operational command. NATO condemned this as "irresponsible and potentially dangerous."

"Fierce battles" raged around the eastern Ukrainian city of Pokrovsk , according to the general staff of the Ukrainian armed forces. Russian forces made 38 attempts to storm Ukrainian positions near the strategic logistics hub.

The Institute for the Study of War identified areas of the frontline from which the Russian military is likely redeploying forces to Kursk: Northern Kharkiv, Chasiv Yar and western Zaporizhzhia.

The head of the international nuclear watchdog said he will lead a mission to inspect Russia's Kursk Nuclear Power Plant tomorrow amid fighting in the region.

At least seven people have been killed and 47 people injured, including four children, by Russia's bombardment, Ukrainian authorities say.

Some civilian facilities were attacked with cluster munitions, Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

Videos posted on social media showed strikes on a hydropower plant, a dam and a water reservoir.

Strikes on power or critical infrastructure were reported in Volyn and Rivne in the northwest; Khmelnytskyi, Lviv and Ivano-Frankivsk in the west; Zhytomyr in the north; Dnipropetrovsk, Kirovohrad and Vinnytsia in central Ukraine; Zaporizhzhia in the southeast; and Odesa in the south.

A 69-year-old man in the Dnipropetrovsk region and a farmer in the Zaporizhzhia region were among those confirmed dead. 

The other killings took place in the regions of Kharkiv, Zhytomyr and Volyn.

NATO has condemned Russia's "irresponsible" attacks after alliance member Poland reported the likely landing of a drone on its territory.

"Since Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Russian drone fragments and missiles have been found on allied territory on several occasions," NATO spokesperson Farah Dakhlallah said. 

"While we have no information indicating an intentional attack by Russia against allies, these acts are irresponsible and potentially dangerous." 

There are reports of another wave of drone attacks this evening, a Ukrainian MP tells Sky News.

Ukraine is also expecting more missiles overnight, says Lesia Vasylenko.

Russia is attacking energy infrastructure, leaving regions without water and power, yet the West will not let Ukraine stop them, she says.

"It's a nonsense that Russians are attacking civilian targets inside of Ukraine on a daily basis, using missiles with components from Western countries, and then those Western countries, including the US, are blocking Ukraine being able to defend itself and to destroy the military targets from which these attacks have been launched," she says."

This is not a retaliation for the Kursk offensive, she says, pointing out that this has been part of Russia's strategy since it invaded Ukraine in February 2022.

"'Winters should be dark and cold for Ukrainians': That's that's the message that Russia is trying to convey and this is what they're trying to make real."

She adds: "When it gets really, really cold, it's going to be absolutely unliveable."

But Ukraine is not prepared to "just surrender and see our homes destroyed and see our loved ones being taken into prisons and to torture centres", says Ms Vasylenko.

As Ukraine came under fire from a massive wave of Russian missiles and drones today, beneath the streets of Kyiv, residents sung the city's anthem.

The chorus echoed through the subway, where families took shelter from the bombardment.

The Kremlin said it has seen media reports about the death of Ryan Evans, a British safety adviser working for Reuters, in a missile strike on a Ukrainian hotel.

Moscow said it only targeted military infrastructure in Ukraine. Russia has repeatedly hit civilian targets over the course of the war.

"I'll repeat once again: Strikes are carried out against military infrastructure objects, and, or against targets related to military infrastructure in one way or another," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said when asked about the incident.

Mr Peskov did not say whether he put security advisers who protect journalists in the military category. 

"I have read information from employees of the agency that we're not talking about a journalist here, but about some kind of security adviser," he said.

Asked subsequently by Reuters to provide further details and explain his remarks, Mr Peskov did not immediately respond.

Ryan Evans, 38, a member of the Reuters team covering the war in Ukraine, was killed and two Reuters journalists were injured in a strike on a hotel in the eastern city of Kramatorsk.

Like many news organisations, Reuters employs safety advisers to work with journalists deployed in conflict zones.

Mr Evans, a former British soldier, had been working with Reuters since 2022 and advised its journalists on safety around the world including in Ukraine, Israel and at the Paris Olympics. 

A worker was killed in a fire that ripped through Russia's Omsk oil refinery, management has said.

Another six workers were injured, the refinery added. 

Earlier today, the local governor said seven people were in hospital, with one in a serious condition.

The cause of the fire was not immediately clear. Several Russian oil refineries have been targeted by Ukrainian drone attacks. 

Some reports on social media said a huge explosion was heard across several districts of the west Siberia city, located around 1,700 miles east of Moscow.

The Omsk refinery processes more than 21 million metric tons, accounting for 8% of Russia's total oil refining volume.

The plant, controlled by Gazprom Neft, said the fire would not affect its production plan.

"Fierce battles are raging" around the eastern city of Pokrovsk, according to the general staff of the Ukrainian armed forces.

Russian forces have made 38 attempts to storm Ukrainian positions near the strategic logistics hub today, with clashes ongoing in 14 locations, it said.

"There remains a tense situation in the Pokrovsky direction," the general staff said, referring to the name for the district.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Ukraine has decided to "further strengthen" Pokrovsk after being briefed by his army chief on the situation in the area. 

Russian forces have been inching forward for months in the Donetsk region, where Pokrovsk is located.

The advance quickened in recent weeks as Moscow's troops  mounted relentless attacks in the direction of Pokrovsk.

The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) has identified areas of the frontline from which the Russian military is likely redeploying forces to Kursk.

Moscow is drawing troops from northern Kharkiv, Chasiv Yar and western Zaporizhzhia - the latter of which readers may remember was a focal point of Ukraine's counteroffensive last year.

Russian command is resisting pressure to redeploy forces away from its "high priority offensive" on Pokrovsk in Donetsk, said the ISW.

It will "likely continue to draw forces from lower priority offensive operations elsewhere throughout the theatre to defend in Kursk", the ISW said.

The Russian defence ministry says it struck Ukrainian forces with airstrikes at more than a dozen places along the front in the Kursk region today.

Moscow said it also repelled attacks in seven areas of Kursk.

The ministry said it was hunting for Ukrainian sabotage units which had hidden in the forests in an attempt to penetrate deeper into Russian territory.

Russia's attack on Ukraine today was its largest air bombardment, Reuters reports Ukraine's air force commander as saying.

The air force shot down 102 of 127 Russian missiles and 99 of 109 drones, Mykola Oleshchuk said.

Russia has bombarded Ukraine for more than two and half years, and launched attacks on 15 regions this morning.

Mr Oleshchuk said the attack included:

• 109 Shahed drones launched from Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Kursk, Yeisk, Chauda and Crimea
• 77 Kh-101 cruise missiles from fighter jets over Volgograd and the Caspian Sea
• 28 Kalibr cruise missiles from surface/underwater carriers in the Black Sea
• 10 Kh-59/Kh-69 guided air missiles from fighter jets over Belgorod and Mariupol
• Six Iskander-M/KN-23 ballistic missiles from Kursk, Voronezh and Crimea
• Three Kinzhal ballistic missiles fired from the Ryazan and Lipetsk regions
• 3 Kh-22 cruise missiles from the Voronezh region
