Locals claim that the Armed Forces have advanced much further than the media say.

Contrary to the statements of the Russian authorities and the opinion of some analysts, the Ukrainian offensive in the Kursk region has not yet been stopped. Local residents told the public about this to the VChK-OGPU .

“Lies. The situation is such that almost everything from Sudja to the village of Kromski Byky (Lhovsky District) is controlled by the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The last to evacuate say that there are many corpses in Malia Lokna, lying right on the roads. Mines, sabotage groups, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine have already dug in everywhere in Malia Lokna. According to the latest information, again, those who were leaving said that there is a roadblock and a machine gun at the intersection near the village,” said one of the residents of the district.

Also, people continue to complain that the authorities have abandoned them and that “the armed forces are everywhere.” Locals try to get out through the “fields and forests” towards Kursk, using local paths and avoiding main roads.Video of the day

“I was hospitalized in the Lhovsk hospital, there were many wounded contractors – all marines. They said that for two days they held back the infantry of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Novoivanivka. Without communication, without any support. There was not even artillery. On the second day, heavy infantry fighting vehicles and tanks broke through the defense, after them the soldiers went to the flank, many of them died, without delay, no one stopped them by two,” says another civilian.

Battles in the Kursk region: the latest news

As UNIAN wrote, Finnish OSINT analyst Pasi Paroinen stated that Russia probably managed to slow down the Ukrainian advance in the Kursk region. According to him, for this the Russians did not even have to withdraw troops from the front in Ukraine.

At the same time, some observers drew attention to the fact that the West’s reaction to these events was unusually restrained. According to British expert Phillips O’Brien , the USA and Germany have probably reconsidered their attitude to the ban on attacks directly on Russian territory.
