British intelligence reports that Russian occupation forces are currently increasing pressure on defenders in the Russian border region. For now, the Ukrainian Armed Forces retain control over an area of about 300 square kilometers in the Kursk salient.
This was reported by the NBN publication with reference to the page of the Ministry of Defence of the United Kingdom on the social network X.
At the same time, as noted in the report, the Ukrainian Defense Forces have gained the opportunity to conduct counterattacks in other areas of the front, where Putin’s occupation army has reduced the number of offensives compared to the beginning of 2025.
According to British intelligence, the defenders in the Pokrovsk area of Donetsk Oblast carried out a number of counterattacks near the villages of Shevchenko and Peschanoye, the settlement of Udachnoye, and also to the south of the T-0506 logistics route. Also in this section of the front, the Defense Forces weakened the supply lines of the Russian Armed Forces with the help of UAV strikes.
Earlier, UK intelligence explained why the head of the Kremlin will have to increase spending on the war against Ukraine.
