Kyiv: More than 300 Ukrainian soldiers had infiltrated into Russia with 11 tanks and 20 armored vehicles. This claim has been made by the Russian Defense Ministry. Meanwhile, a top official in Russia’s Kursk region bordering Ukraine said on Thursday that fighting is still going on in the area where Ukrainian forces infiltrated this week. Ukrainian officials have not commented on the ongoing operation around the city of Sudja. Kursk’s acting deputy governor Andrei Belostotsky said that Russian forces are struggling to stop Ukrainians from advancing in the region.
“The enemy has not advanced an inch; on the contrary, it is retreating. Enemy equipment and weapons are being destroyed. We hope that the enemy will be stopped in the near future,” Belostotsky said, according to state news agency RIA-Novosti. Russian President Vladimir Putin on Wednesday described the incursion as a “large-scale provocation”. Putin held a meeting with his top defence and security officials to discuss what he claimed was “indiscriminate shelling of civilian buildings, residential buildings, ambulances with various types of weapons”. He directed the Cabinet to coordinate assistance to the Kursk region.

However, this claim of Russia could not be independently confirmed. (Language)
