The day before, on March 14, President Volodymyr Zelensky declared that the “Kursk operation” had accomplished its key goal, since it had pulled significant forces of Putin’s army away from the Pokrovsk and Kharkov directions.

As NBN reports with reference to the Facebook profile of the editor-in-chief of the CENSOR.NET portal and military journalist Yuri Butusov, no full-fledged encirclement of the Ukrainian Armed Forces has been recorded in the Kursk region.

Based on Butusov’s words, the situation in Kursk region and in the adjacent regions of Ukraine looks as follows:

  • not a single unit of our country's Defense Forces has been cut off by the “liberators”;
  • the Ukrainian army has gained freedom of maneuver and retains access to short logistics routes;
  • Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers have reached/are holding a tactically advantageous defensive line – we are talking about several heights located along the state border on the territory of the aggressor country;
  • the threat of a large-scale offensive by Russian occupation forces on Sumy and the Sumy region with significant forces is currently absent, and the penetration of only small groups of invaders who enter a short distance, without the possibility of subsequent advancement, is likely.

Earlier we wrote that ISW reported on which sections of the front Putin’s army advanced in a day.
