Panic in Russia. Let’s recall that on Monday, representatives of the central and regional authorities of Russia discussed, among other things, the situation in the Kursk and Belgorod regions. The situation is decidedly more difficult in the former, where according to official information provided by Governor Alexei Smirnov, Ukraine has taken control of 28 localities.
On Tuesday, the Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, Oleksandr Syrskyi, reported that Ukraine controls 74 settlements. On the same day, the President of the USA spoke for the first time on the situation in the Kursk region.
I talk to my staff on a regular basis, maybe every four to five hours over the last six to eight days. This (operation in the Kursk Oblast) creates a real dilemma for Putin, as quoted by euromaidanpress.com
Joe Biden made it clear that the United States is not involved in Ukraine's offensive inside Russia.
We are not involved in any aspect of planning or preparing this operation. Ukrainian military will speak about their operations, and our role, what we focus on, is supporting Ukraine in defending itself, especially when it comes to protection from attacks coming directly from across the border, Vedant Patel.
Patel also debunked rumors and assured that representatives of the United States were not informed about Ukraine’s plans regarding Russia.
This is how Russia wants to fight for Kursk
According to the Russian independent portal Astra, several hundred individuals refusing military service were forcibly put on a plane in St. Petersburg and taken to the vicinity of Kursk.
Some were lured under the pretext of urgent construction work. They have allegedly already received rifles, and it is a matter of time before they join the fight against the Ukrainians.
