The Russian army started to "push back” units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) in the Kursk region. According to Major General Apti Alaudinov, the advance of the Ukrainian troops in the region has been stopped.
"When we were transferred here, they were actively advancing. Well, I can proudly say that from the moment we entered here we stopped them and began to push them back, eliminating them in maximum numbers,” Alaudinov said.
There are several settlements in the Kursk direction, on the outskirts of which the Ukrainian military are still staying.
"The enemy is busy regrouping. I am not ready to say at the moment where they are going to strike. But there is a general analysis, a rough idea of that,” Alaudinov said.
Earlier, General Alaudinov said that the fighting in the Kursk region would end "in the next two or three months.” According to him, the special military operation may be over by that time too.
