The President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, spoke about the successes of the Kursk operation and the discussions at the Headquarters regarding the protection of frontline areas, particularly Pokrovsk. The head of state made this statement in his evening address.
In five months of the Kursk operation, the enemy has lost more than 38 thousand military personnel, of which about 15 thousand have died. The Armed Forces of Ukraine are holding a buffer zone in Russian territory and continue to destroy the enemy's military potential.
