The General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces stated that the information about the alleged encirclement of the Ukrainian army units in the Kursk Oblast by the aggressor country russia is not true and is a fake.
This is evidenced by a message on the official Facebook page of the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
"Reports about the alleged "encirclement" of Ukrainian units in the Kursk Oblast by the enemy are not true and are created by the Russians for political purposes and pressure on Ukraine and partners," the message says.
The General Staff emphasized that over the past day the situation on this section of the front "has not undergone any significant changes."
Units of the Ukrainian Defense Forces have regrouped, moving to more favorable defense lines, and continue to fulfill the tasks assigned to them.
The General Staff added that since the beginning of the day, 13 combat clashes have taken place in the Kursk direction, and there is no threat of encirclement of units of the Ukrainian army.
