The Armed Forces of Ukraine are making progress in the Kursk region, with soldiers advancing on the western side of the Ukrainian salient. According to a report by the Institute for the Study of War (ISW), Ukrainian defenders have won a small victory in the western part of Novoivanovka, southeast of Korenevo.

According to Russian military bloggers, the Ukrainian army attempted to cross the international border in the area of Volfino (southwest of Glushkov).

In addition, Ukrainian forces have deployed additional reserves in the area of the Kruglenkoye-Nikolsky line, where they launched an attack with two tactical groups of mechanized companies.

“Russian sources are trying to justify the slow pace of Russian advance in the Kursk region, mistakenly presenting this direction as uniquely difficult,” ISW analysts note.

In turn, as the commander of the Chechen special forces detachment Akhmat noted, the fighting in the Kursk region is very intense, and that the Kursk direction is the most difficult frontline area of the entire theater of military operations.
