Much of this territory was simply abandoned by russian troops, they fled when they saw our troops approaching. A significant part of the territory was taken by our forces in battles. As of now, during the first month of our operation, russian troops have lost approximately 6,000 soldiers killed and wounded in the kursk region alone, as well as tens of thousands of russian troops in other combat zones.
