Details
They (the Russians — Ed.) felt what we feel. That is, they were forced to defend their own territory, and in conditions that were not comfortable for them. Here, during the offensive operations, our losses were actually half as much as during the defense
The offensive hit the reputation of the Russian Federation. This raised the degree, because such a" powerful state " cannot protect its borders.
Each operation has its own beginning, end, and goal. We have achieved the goal for this time of operation. Now the task is to maintain these achievements so that the results of this operation benefit the state both in political and operational terms
Sirsky added that this was the only sure way of asymmetric actions that allowed us to balance.
Earlier UNN said that the main task of the operation in the Kursk Region was to move forward as far as the composition of troops allows, without creating risks to the rear and logistics.
