The Russian military’s Sever Group of Forces repelled more Ukrainian attacks in the direction of Kursk, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced on August 23.
In a briefing, the ministry said that Kiev forces were prevented from advancing towards the settlements of Borki, Malaya Loknya, Komarovka, Korenevo, Martynovka and Russkaya Konopelka. At least 70 Ukrainian troops were killed or wounded. Two armored fighting vehicles, and one motor vehicle were also destroyed.
A Ukrainian sabotage and reconnaissance group was also detected and neutralized near the settlement of Kamyshevka, according to the ministry, which said that five troops and one motor vehicle were neutralized.
The ministry added that Russian air and artillery strikes inflicted losses on Ukraine’s 22nd, 61st, and 115th mechanized brigades and the 80th air assault brigades close to the settlements of Apanasovka, Aleksandria, Vishnevka, Guyevo, Mikhailovka, Lyubymivka, Malaya Loknya, Plekhovo, Snagost and Yuzhny.
Other strikes hit reserves of the 41st, 54th mechanized brigades, 82nd and 95th air assault brigades, 36th Marine Brigade, 101st, 103rd, 106th, and 129th territorial defense brigades as well as the 69th Rifle Battalion close to the settlements of Aleksandrovka, Bachevsk, Buyankino, Vorozhba, Glukhov, Kamenka, Miropolye, Mogritsa, Novaya Sloboda, Obody, Pervomayskoye, Pavlovka, Svessa, Seredina Buda and Tolstodubovo, according to the ministry.
“In the past 24 hours, the AFU [Armed Forces of Ukraine] losses amounted to up to 400 Ukrainian troops and 17 armored vehicles, including one tank, two armored personnel carriers, 14 armored fighting vehicles, two artillery guns, one MLRS launcher, two mortars, and 10 motor vehicles,” the ministry said.
“Since the beginning of hostilities in Kursk region, the AFU losses amounted to up to 5,137 Ukrainian troops, 69 tanks, 27 infantry fighting vehicles, 55 armored personnel carriers, 350 armored fighting vehicles, 158 motor vehicles, 34 artillery guns, five SAM [surface-to-air missile] launchers, 11 multiple-launch rocket systems, including three of HIMARS system and one of MLRS [multiple launch rocket] system, six electronic warfare stations, as well as four units of engineering vehicles, including two counter obstacle vehicles and one UR-77 mine clearing vehicle,” it concluded.
The ministry also released video footage showing strikes by Mi-28NM attack helicopters and Su-34 fighter bombers as well as two recent strikes with Lancet loitering munitions in the Kursk direction.
Kiev forces backed by foreign mercenaries infiltrated Kursk on August 6, in a surprise attack that was apparently orchestrated with help from NATO. The attack has so far claimed the lives of dozens of Russian civilians and displaced tens of thousands.
The Russian military has already halted the advance of Kiev forces in Kursk. Currently, working is undergoing to liberate the region.

volgograd ik-19 prison taken over by islamist radicals, who have killed several ru prison wardens & taken dozens more hostage incl. the prison chief, a. devyatov. the islamists demand 2 mio dollars and free air travel out of the country towards middle east. see: https://2cm.es/ik19volgograd so what’s up mr. putin ? ass wide open?
defending the city by rivers of blood against the heroic german wehrmacht in 42, and now step by step it goes down & like all of southern russia, falls to the muslims islamists – and ethnic russians are killed there. that’s the “pro-russian” policy of mr. pootin. and most of the christian russians are so stupid & brainwashed to even support this jewish poopoo traitor dwarf !! it is unbelievable !

you mean nazis turn into crispy pigs
i saw one of them tossed away by a tos, jeez – the poor bastard was all crunched up and black as coal as if they dug him up in pompeii. well, nazis are what they are, do what they do and die how they die.
it’s good to hear more and more conscripts are at least refusing to fight. i wouldn’t fight for those psycho nazis or their neoconniver enablers either.
if he’s lucky, zelensky will just end up in a mental ward tied to a bed just like saakashvili any day now.
like some wise man once said: being america’s enemy is dangerous but being its friend is a death sentence.

so the usa is very disappointed then, since the afu is running scared all over…
last june, biden lifted the ban on american contractors sending mercenaries into ukraine. when he lifted the ban on american weapons, allowing them to be deployed inside russia, this was another step that de facto allowed these private american military operations to invade russia pretending it is not the official united states. i have warned that the neocons are scared to death of trump, and if rfk joins trump as the attorney general .
sources are reporting that stephanie holmes, the us chargé d’affaires in russia, was summoned to the russian ministry of foreign affairs to explain why americans have invaded russia with the invasion of the ukrainian army into the kursk region. by 2008, the us department of defense employed 155,826 private contractors in iraq — and 152,275 troops.
this was done to prevent peace demonstrations like during the vietnam conflict. because kia or wounded contractors are not mentioned in the newspapers and the population stays asleep.
then every so often the msm interviews one of them and he rambles on about some nonsense protecting democracy and i burst out laughing.
funny how no one ever tells them they overthrew a democracy just to turn the black sea into a nato lake before injecting them with the bullshit serum. best laid plans by idiots never turn out well.
let me ask a simple question, wouldn’t even a reasonably intelligent person do some serious research into what happened at maidan and beyond before risking your life in ukraine for some fantasy that’d been drilled into your head by infomercials passed off as news? these western mercs must either be just braindead or ideological nazi psycho braindead.
what invasion… truly it was a suicide mission.
out of the 10k nazis that participated in this foolish deployment, 5k+ are already in hell as we speak and the remaining retards will meet the same fate since there will be no supplies or reinforcements.
ah, the beavis and butthead duo zelensky and syrsky probably sent 20-30 thousand in there already in a hail mary pass. the more the merrier.
rus zase rozdelil sily nepriateľa a teraz ho môže ľahšie ničiť. nechal nepriateľa si myslieť aký je on geniálny ako prekvapil rusov. no hovno!!! rus ich tu čakal a nevedel sa dočkať. teraz má okrem toho, že rozdelil sily nepriateľa aj argument v ruke, že agresorom je kyjev!!! rus bojuje na donbase a to je už teraz ruské územie. (inak vždy aj bolo) a to de facto a aj de jure!!! mysleniu zdar a svetu mier!!!

choose ziopends, creepy joe approves. his “go to” brand when he falls asleep in his bowl of tater mush…
nazi tanks are sitting ducks for the airforce as predicted and i suspect the famous pills have been distributed, or these soldiers are completely brainwashed or suicidal. kiev is wasting all resources with this last chance offensive. the only reason can be that they think negotiations will start soon and they want to grab as much territory as possible.
well, they’ve played the russian roulette and got themselves a bullet to the head.
this dumb ukronazi mission ended any perspective for future negotiations.
yankee doodle had zionists stick feathers up his ass rather than defend it’s own soul.
please call what these so called foreign mercenaries really are, nato troops!
i like to call them the walking dead.
talibanned amerikraut nazis give me taco to get lost in teal aviv gay bar
hahaha lol!
remove that abomination from the middleeast
ukraine is just a pawn in a big scale war against russia. beware of them, this is a long strategy developed since the u.s.s.r collapse, they tried everything to divide russia and to make them beg and crawl for eternity, if you let them win, your children are going to be abused. don’t look at the west anymore, let them collapse and implode in their own machiavellic deeds.

get ready little nazi your time is here
america has admitted that it is attacking russian territory and that it will allow kiev to strike deep inside russia with american missiles and f16s. now is the time for the russian president to prove that he is the protector of russian citizens and russia as a whole. carpet bomb kiev no more red lines and puffed cheeks do what is needed or you will bare full responsibility for what the ukropistan neo nazis have planned.
shouldn’t the cities in ukraine where this invasion force into russia was stationed be carpet bombed now like gaza ??? shouldn’t the general order from the russian military be all mercenaries invading russia if captured be taken for immediate courts martial ???
it should be that way but its quite obvious that putin and the russian elite are part of the new world order and they are playing with civilian lives without any remorse. just look at what has happened and the only thing that comes out of the kremlin are red lines, stern words, puffed cheeks and frowns. a real leader would bomb the snot out of the nazis eating ice cream in kiev.
