Ukraine's General Staff says statements about "encirclement" in Russia's Kursk Oblast are untrue, just political pressure

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine denies the statements about the encirclement of Ukrainian units in Russia’s Kursk Oblast. In particular, Russian leader Vladimir Putin and US President Donald Trump have previously spoken about this.

Source : General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Facebook

Quote : "Reports of the enemy's alleged ‘encirclement’ of Ukrainian units in Kursk Oblast are untrue and are created by the Russians for political purposes and to put pressure on Ukraine and its partners.

The situation has not changed significantly over the past day. Combat operations in the operational area of the Kursk military grouping continue."

Details : The statement said that Ukraine’s defence forces units regrouped and "moved to more favourable defence lines".

"Our soldiers are repelling the enemy's offensive and inflicting effective fire damage on them from all types of weapons. Since the beginning of the day, 13 combat clashes have occurred on the Kursk front. There is no threat of encirclement of our units," the statement said.

Background :

  • In his statement on 14 March, Trump said he had had productive talks with Putin. At the same time, he said that allegedly "thousands of Ukrainian troops are completely surrounded by the Russian military, and in a very bad and vulnerable position".
  • Putin made a similar statement on Thursday, speaking to the media.
