The current situation along the line of contact, as described by the President of RussiaLet us start in the north, meaning the North group of forces. You will recall that the goal for the Russian troops in the Sumy and Volchansk sectors is creating a security zone along our borders.

The Ukraine regime will pay for its crimes in the Kursk Region by losing the territory that we need to secure our borders. By the way, the city of Sumy, which is a small regional centre with just over 30 thousand buildings in total, is just 10.5 kilometres away from our current positions.
