“The Russian army is confidently pushing the Ukrainian Armed Forces out of the Kursk region,” – Lavrov

The Russian army is confidently pushing the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) out of the Kursk region.

This was reported by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov during an embassy roundtable on resolving the situation around Ukraine.

“We can observe this within the framework of the Ukrainian armed forces’ incursion into the Kursk region, from where they are now being firmly pushed out, and they will be expelled—there is no doubt about it,” the minister said.

Lavrov also touched on the topic of long-range strikes on Russian territory using Western weapons. According to the Russian Foreign Minister, Moscow is convinced that the decision to carry out such strikes has already been made, and it is currently being “carefully crafted for public presentation.”

In addition, Lavrov accused Ukraine of attacks not only on the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant but also on the Leningrad and Kalinin nuclear plants. He warned that these actions could lead to a “nuclear catastrophe.”

Earlier, war correspondent Aleksandr Kots reported that motivated units of the Ukrainian army have been depleted in the Kursk direction. According to Kots, the AFU units attacking the Kursk region have become “like sluggish clay.”
