The Serbian medium “Informer” has misinformed about Ukraine’s incursion of the Kursk region on Russian territory, writing that the Ukrainian army was stopped by the Russian army, while saying that President Volodymyr Zelensky is silent.
What did the “Informer” report?
“The catastrophe of Ukraine! Zelenskyi’s army was cut off in Kursk! The generals and the president are silent about the terrible defeat that awaits Kiev! Part of the fighters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (OSU) in the attack in the Kursk region remained separated from the main units and are currently in the vicinity. President Vladimir Putin stated that Kiev wanted to stop the Russian offensive in the Donbass with the attack on the Kursk region, but did not succeed, reports “Informer”.
Analysis:
The “Informer” disinformed about the attack, which was considered one of Ukraine’s most successful in the fight against Russian aggression.
Ukraine launched a cross-border incursion into the Kursk region in early August, capturing about 100 settlements and 1,300 square kilometers of Russian territory. Russia launched a counterattack, but it is untrue that the Ukrainian army has stopped, as reported by Serbian media. President Zelensky also stated that “everything went according to our plan” and that Russia’s “rapid” offensive in the region had not yet achieved any “serious” successes. One of the aims of Ukraine’s invasion of the Kursk region was to force Russia to move its forces away from the front in Ukraine. Prior to the invasion of Kursk, the most intensive Russian attacks were observed in the Donetsk region, mainly near Pokrovsk. While the Russian offensive in Pokrovsk slowed down after the start of the Kursk incursion.
Russia has also stepped up its attacks in the Sumy border region, which the military sees as a reaction to Kiev’s success in the Kursk operation.
The Ukrainian attack on Russian territory has exposed Russia’s weaknesses. Kiev’s surprise operation on the territory of the Russian Federation could change the nature of the war and was seen as a major success./The Geopost/
