While Kiev succeeds in Kursk, the Russian Federation strikes in response to Donetsk - Politico

The situation in some areas of the front for the Armed Forces has deteriorated, the newspaper notes. Defense forces in Donetsk region began to receive fewer ammunition. Recently, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have occupied several more settlements in Russia and now Kiev controls 1152 square kilometers of the Russian Federation, but in the Donetsk region the situation for the Armed Forces has worsened. Politico writes about it.

But although the successes of the unexpected Kursk operation have raised the combat spirit of Kiev, Russian troops are struck in response, capturing more and more territories around the Donetsk region of Ukraine. Ever since Ukraine began an offensive on the Kursk Arc, "I would say that the situation on our front area has deteriorated,"-quoted the edition of a representative of the 110th Mechanized Brigade, which is stationed in the Pokrovsky district, Ivan Sekach.

"We get even fewer ammunition than before, and the Russians come," he said. According to the material, Russia occupied the villages of Zhelanne and Orlovka and advanced to New York, Krasnogorivka, Mykolaivka and Zhuravka in Donetsk region. At the same time, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as noted, did not confirm and refute this information, saying only that fierce battles continue in these areas.

Recall that analysts of the American Institute for War Study (ISW) believe that the Russian command of the Russian Federation prefers to promote in Ukraine before the protection of Kursk region. According to the officer of the planning section of the Brigade "Rubiz", NSU Major Dmitry Kozhubenko, the enemy continues to carry out assault actions in the Donetsk region, but the tactics of the enemy still changed.
