On the ground, we are first of all supplying personnel and equipment to those units that are already engaged in defense on the front line. At the same time, we continue to take measures to relocate and second military personnel from non-combat to combat military units. We are taking into account the challenges of the times and working to strengthen the army even in the current difficult conditions. The reform of the organizational structure of the Armed Forces is ongoing. We have begun implementing measures to transition to a corps structure.
Regarding the situation on the battlefield:
We continue to effectively destroy the enemy's military facilities in order to reduce its strike potential. We are destroying the enemy both on the territory of Ukraine and in Russia.
Syrsky emphasized that the operation in the Kursk region and the destruction of military targets deep in the aggressor country are among the priorities.
We are focusing our efforts primarily on steadily holding the borders and preventing the enemy from advancing, enhancing training of military personnel and building up the unmanned component.
