Ukrainian soldiers are holding back the Russians in the border area of Belgorod region. Also, the Defense Forces are located in two directions in the Kursk region.
This was reported by the head of the Council of Reservists of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Ivan Tymochko on the air of the telethon, reports UNN.
Now we are saying that Ukrainians are holding back the Russians in the border zone of the Belgorod region, that is, it means that hostilities, even in the border zone and within 3-5 km, are on their territory. This is important. This means that they were not able to effectively build the line of defense of the borders themselves in their time.
According to him, Ukrainian soldiers are located in two directions in the Kursk region.
If we are talking about the presence of our troops in the Belgorod region and we are talking about the Kursk region, then first of all, the withdrawal in the Sujan direction does not mean that the Armed Forces of Ukraine have left the Kursk region. We are located in two directions of the Kursk region - the Tyotkino district and the Sujan direction. The military contingent that they used in the Kursk region, they did not remove it. Those 60 or 70 thousand personnel plus 10 or 15 thousand North Koreans, they have certain rotations there, they keep them there, and it is extremely important for them to transfer these troops to other directions.
