Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the Kursk operation had achieved its main goal and launched a large part of Russian troops from Pokrovsky, Kharkiv and Sumy directions. Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated this during a meeting with journalists.

"Our boys are absolutely heroic, they took a strong blow. The first pressure slept in the Kharkiv direction - the Russians pulled the maximum number of troops into Kurshchina. Then they began to take the forces from the East, but did not leave the main goal - Pokrovskaya," Zelensky said.

The President stressed that thanks to the Kursk operation, the situation in the Pokrovsky and Kharkiv directions stabilized, and the enemy will be "very difficult" to find the opportunity to threaten Pokrovsk again.
