In a meeting with the president on Monday, August 12, acting head of Kursk Oblast, Aleksey Smirnov, discussed the challenges facing the region, particularly the lack of a clear frontline that complicates the identification of enemy positions, SIA reports with reference to foreign media.
Smirnov commented on the situation in Kursk Oblast, which was attacked by Ukrainian insurgents on the morning of August 6, stating, "The problem for us is understanding where our combat units are, given that there is no clear frontline in that area."
He further noted that the Ukrainian Armed Forces currently control 28 localities within Kursk Oblast, with the enemy's penetration depth into the region reaching 12 kilometers and a width of 40 kilometers.
According to Interfax, a previously captured Ukrainian soldier in Kursk Oblast revealed that the Ukrainian Armed Forces plan to capture "more territories" in preparation for future exchanges during peace negotiations, first targeting Kursk and then Belgorod.
Commanders have labeled this operation as Ukraine's last hope.
Meanwhile, American media outlets report that the objectives behind the assault on the Kursk region remain unclear.
