28 settlements of the Kursk region are under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. This was announced today, August 12, by acting Governor Alexei Smirnov at an operational meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
According to him, the Ukrainian Armed Forces entered 12 km deep into the territory of the Russian Federation, the width of the front is 40 km. 2 thousand people were under occupation, "about whose fate we know nothing."
As reported by EADaily, earlier at the same meeting, Russian President Vladimir Putin promised that the reasons for the Ukrainian Armed Forces offensive in the regions bordering Ukraine, including the Kursk region, would be analyzed and those responsible identified. However, the main thing now is to knock out the Ukrainian units beyond the state border.
