Russia launches counter-offensive in Kursk region

Russia has said its army has recaptured ten settlements in its Kursk border region, where Ukraine last month launched a major cross-border incursion.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky also conceded Russia had launched its own counter-attack in the region, but insisted that the shock incursion was still going to plan.

 Russia's army is steadily pushing Ukrainian forces out of the Kursk Region, and will undoubtedly succeed in completing this task, Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at a roundtable meeting with ambassadors on the Ukrainian issue.

The top Russian diplomat pointed to the fact that NATO member states are talking about this also, behind closed doors. "And there they are promoting ideas that, apparently, it is not quite decent to defend in the public space. We have no such concerns, we have nothing to be embarrassed about," Lavrov emphasized. "In addition, today we would like to present you with information on how the war unleashed by the West against Russia using Ukraine as the vessel is unfolding, a war that would be impossible without the supply of huge amounts of Western weapons, ammunition and military equipment. And there are many unfortunate aspects of this situation, but one of them, of course, is the direct involvement of the Ukrainian armed forces, with direct support from the West, in large-scale terrorist actions," the foreign minister pointed out.

 The top Russian diplomat also emphasized that "terrorist attacks on civilian infrastructure and civilians in the Belgorod and Bryansk regions, as well as periodic launches of attack drones in other border regions of Russia have been going on for more than a year."
