Russia declares emergency in Belgorod region amid escalating Ukrainian attacks
ai generated text
The situation in the Belgorod region of Russia has escalated, with Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov declaring a state of emergency due to ongoing tensions and attacks by Ukrainian forces. The region has seen significant destruction, with houses destroyed and civilians injured or killed. Colonel General Olesandr Syrsky reports that his forces have captured over 40 square kilometers of territory, while Russian air defenses have destroyed 117 drones and four tactical missiles. Ukrainian forces have claimed control of hundreds of square miles of Russian territory, with nearly 200,000 people fleeing their homes.
Now we have done the exact same thing – we have proven once again that we, Ukrainians, are capable of achieving our goals in any situation – capable of defending our interests and our independence.
Despite difficult and intense battles, our forces continue to advance in the Kursk region, and our state's 'exchange fund' is growing. Seventy-four settlements are under Ukrainian control.
The enemy will certainly receive a worthy response, and all the goals facing us will undoubtedly be achieved.
I've spoken with my staff on a regular basis probably every four or five hours for the last six or eight days.
Ukraine has every right to wage war in such a way as to paralyse Russia in its aggressive intentions as effectively as possible.
The attempts by enemy mobile units using armoured equipment to break through deeper into Russian territory have been repelled.
Russian authorities will likely remain extremely averse to pulling Russian military units engaged in combat from [Donetsk] and will likely continue deploying limited numbers of irregular forces to Kursk … due to concerns about further slowing the tempo of Russian operations in these higher priority directions.
The sooner Russia agrees to restore a just peace (...) the sooner raids by the Ukrainian defence forces into Russia will stop.
Everything is being executed according to the plan.
