Kursk: Russia ‘getting what it deserves,’ Ukraine says, after launching counterattack in border region

CNN  

CNN — Ukraine has launched a counterattack in the southern Russian border region of Kursk, warning that Russia is “getting what it deserves.” Andrii Kovalenko, the head of the Ukrainian Center for Countering Disinformation, an official body, said Ukrainian forces had launched surprise attacks against Russian forces in several locations across Kursk, months after launching its incursion in the region. In a short Telegram post Sunday, the head of the Ukrainian Presidential Office, Andriy Yermak, said: “Kursk region, good news, Russia is getting what it deserves.” The Ukrainian military first launched an incursion into Kursk in August and has held much of the territory it took, despite efforts by Russian and recently deployed North Korean troops to drive Ukrainian units back across the border. He said that Kyiv’s troops were “actively destroying” the Russian military, and that since the start of the incursion into Kursk 5 months ago nearly 15,000 Russian troops had been killed. Zelensky emphasized that by deploying its “strong units” to fight in Kursk region Russia could no longer send them elsewhere to such places as “Donetsk, Sumy, Kharkiv, or Zaporizhzhia regions.” On Saturday, Zelensky said that in battles near the village of Makhnovka, the Russian army lost up to a battalion of North Korean soldiers and Russian paratroopers.
