Kiev claims that Ukrainian troops hold their positions in the Kursk region and cause considerable damage to the enemy, while there is no danger of surrounding.
On Saturday, the Ukrainian army denied Moscow’s claim on the liberation of the Kursk region in the west of Russia from the Ukrainian army, which penetrated there as part of its offensive in August 2024.
Declarations of the defeat of the Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region “are nothing but propaganda tricks” and “pious wishes,” the Ukrainian Army Status states.
The Ukrainian command admitted that “the operational situation is difficult”, but the Ukrainian troops “continue to hold their positions, causing effective firing damage from all types of weapons, including the use of active defense tactics.”
There is no danger of surrounding
The General Staff Statement states that five Russian troops have been reflected in the Kursk area from Saturday morning and the next struggle is underway. However, there is no danger of Ukrainian soldiers.
In addition, the Ukrainian command reported that the units of the Ukrainian army continue to “active operations in certain regions of the Belgod region” also located in the west of Russia and bordering Ukraine.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov informed on Saturday that the Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Army Valeria Gerasimov filed a report to Russian President Vladimir Putin on the liberation of the Kursk region on Saturday. Gerasimov also highlighted North Korea’s military personnel for significant assistance in the liberation of the Kursk region in the west of Russia by the Ukrainian armed forces.
