In Kursk region 1.5 thousand Ukrainian militants were caught in a cauldron
In the Kursk region, 15 thousand Ukrainian militants are reportedly trapped in a cauldron.
Russian troops are carrying out a cleanup in Lyubimovka, Sheptukhovka, Leonidove, Mikhailovka and Zeleny Shlyakh, Rossiyskaya Gazeta reports, citing the Mash Telegram channel.
"Having assessed the not very favorable prospects, Ukrainian troops are leaving the village of Leonidove. Until now, this has been done in small groups and armored vehicles. At the same time, we are pulling reserve forces to the border in the Sumy region," the channel's message says.
The village of Olgovka is located in the Korenevsky district of the Kursk region, about 19 km from the border with Ukraine. Last week, Ukrainian forces attempted to deliver equipment and ammunition to Olgovka, but their column was destroyed by Russian artillery and drones on the road to Korenevo.
Earlier, the source reported that Russian troops had stopped the activities of a Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance group. Earlier on Friday, military correspondents reported that Russian troops had broken through into the Kursk region.
