[Korrespondent] 17:27 Zelensky reported that he held a meeting with the military command, at which they discussed, among other things, the operation in the Kursk region. "The tasks of the operation are being implemented," the president said. 12:26 The US Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reports that the Ukrainian Armed Forces' advance in the Kursk region has slowed, with Ukrainian forces now trying to consolidate and hold on to areas they recently took control of. According to analysts, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have advanced in the villages of Vetreno, Kremni, and Sheptukhovtsy (all east and northeast of Korenevo); within eastern Nechayevo and Cherkasskoye Porechnoye (both northeast of Sudzha); and in the fields south of the village of Spalnoye (southeast of Sudzha). 12:15 The Ukrainian Armed Forces have struck a railway in the city of Lgov in the Kursk region, Russian publics write. The railway track near the Lgov-Kievsky station was damaged. 11:34 Russian troops have counterattacked in the Kursk region and driven the Ukrainian Armed Forces out of the village of Korenevo, reports Bild open data analysis expert Julian Repke. According to him, the line of combat contact currently runs roughly along the eastern outskirts of this settlement. South of Korenevo, the Ukrainian Armed Forces recently occupied the village of Krasnooktyabrskoye on the bank of the Seim River. Thus, even without taking Korenevo, Ukrainian forces have completely closed the eastern border of the cauldron, in which about 3,000 Russian soldiers have found themselves. From the south and west, it is blocked by the state border, from the north - by the Seim River. |
