The Sever Group of Forces repelled eight attacks by Kiev forces that targeted the settlements of Borki, Korenevo, Kremyanoye and Malaya Loknya in the Kursk direction, the Russian Ministry of Defense announced on August 28.
Other attacks were thwarted near the settlements of Spalnoye, Olgovka, and Russkaya Konopelka, the ministry said in a briefing, noting that 75 Ukrainian troops were killed or wounded, five others were captured and one tank plus eight armored fighting vehicles were destroyed.
The ministry also said that Russian air and artillery strikes hit Ukraine’s 22nd, 61st, and 115th mechanized brigades, 82nd and 92nd airborne assault brigades close to the settlements of Apanasovka, Borki, Viktorovka, Kruglenkoye, Krasnooktyabrsky, Lyubimovka, Malaya Lokna, Mirny, Novoya Sorochina, Obukhovka, Plekhovo, Sverdlikovo, Sudzha, Snagost and Yuzhny.
It added that other strikes hit the reserves of the 41st and 54th mechanized brigades, 80th Air Assault Brigade, 69th Separate Rifle Battalion, 1st Ukrainian National Guard Brigade as well as the 101st, 103rd, and 107th territorial defense brigades close to the settlements of Atinskoye, Belopoloye, Boyaro-Lezhachi, Glukhov, Iskriskovshchina, Masenzovka, Mikhailovskoye, Pervomaiskoye, Pustogorod, Solyaniki, Shalygino, Ugroyedy and Esman.
“The AFU [Armed Forces of Ukraine] losses amounted to more than 380 troops and 30 units of armored vehicles, including one tank, one infantry fighting vehicle, and 28 armored fighting vehicles as well as six artillery guns, three mortars, and nine motor vehicles,” the ministry said.
“Since the beginning of hostilities in Kursk region, the AFU losses were over 7,000 troops, 74 tanks, 35 infantry fighting vehicles, 62 armored personnel carriers, 460 armored fighting vehicles, 210 motor vehicles, 51 artillery guns, 13 multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS), including four of HIMARS MLRS and one of MLRS, five SAM [surface-to-air missile] launchers, 10 electronic warfare stations, two radar counter-battery stations, one air defense radar, five engineering vehicles as well as two counter obstacle vehicles and one UR-77 mine clearing vehicle,” it concluded.
The ministry also released videos showing some of the recent strikes that targeted Ukrainian troops and equipment in the Kursk direction.
Kiev forces launched their surprise attack in Kursk on August 6. Western-made weapons and foreign mercenaries played a key role in the attack, which came to a halt within a few days due to the fierce resistance of the Russian military.
Since the start of the attack, at least 31 Russian civilians have been killed and more than 140 others have been wounded. Moreover, the attack displaced more than 140,000 civilians. The fate of some 2,000 others who lived in areas attacked by Kiev forces remain unknown.

last video with drone attacking….looks like russia has improved their “firecracker”. kaaaboom
i sincerly hate the fpv shitdrones, no matter who is using them….
i’m sure plenty of ex cavalry hated machine guns too.
nato is a terrorist organization that needs to be abolished and eastern european countries that want war with russia need to be expelled from the eu.
thems fighting words annie get your guns .
if afu is “totally collapsed”…how is it still bringing the fight to orcrussia???
heheheh
if your mom is the most ugly whore that exists why does she still turn daily tricks and drop you on your head?
don’t worry, it is. you just don’t understand how a collapse of an army looks like.
i still don’t see any collapse in the donbass, the russian advance is still a crawl. putin deliberately refuses to raise enough troops to conduct an offensive.
ridiculous. what do you expect? that troops run and open their rear for terrorists and nationalists?
latched hard onto that “totally collapsed” strawman, didn’t you? how’s it looking on the donbas line today?
fine, rashniks dieing, bang for buck best war since gulf war 2
…have they still not made soap out of you, you stupid shrinkhead???
stock up on depends lately?
horseheaded freak…
is it fine from the perspective of the ukrainians who are dying there and forfeiting their territory? there isn’t really much getting around the fact that the ukrainian puppet, enormous as it was and with all the bucks for the bang, keeps getting ground under and giving ground.
because is nato not afu, nazis ain’t shit, you just acting like terrorists one bomb here one bomb there, on civilians. you haven’t even returned not a single km of territory back.
russian army red carpet knights struggling.
how are the ukrainians doing in the eleventh year of the ato?
good, as always
that’s how you describe the loss of 20% of the state’s territory, and millions upon millions of citizens abandong the country. that’s a very unorthodox perspect you hold there, li’l nazi cosplay boy.
…because they are duly received by the ukrainian population! the squires of the afu fight and are stuck up to their necks in the blackest morass

according to some nato sources, these officers died after contracting monkeypox in a gay sauna in dinopretrovsk.
according to other sources, they died after snorting too pure cocaine at a party with zelensky.
it is a mystery that the prestigious cnn or the bbc will soon clarify for us.
afu is choking itself, please keep doing this🤡
so difficult to predict what could happen next in kursk, at least i can see seven outcomes. ukraine is no match for russia, those are little skirmishes of a big war in different domains. i don’t like what could happen before the end of the year. russia should be really careful, the eagle is preparing something in advance, also the britards has something that smells very very bad. be careful russia.
it’s not the war itsxj6stvacm8nor battle 8n preparation a prelude . and now zs apparently suck8ng up to joseph beggingbhim to let ukraine off the meatvhook by approving peace talks with russia. well that’s not joseph’s planned operation he’s continuing the first ever catholic presidents missions to lead the world into war he wont make the same mistake as kennedy and try to do the opposite and get shot to death publicly .he s compliant like kamelot will be to his masters voice.
veľmi na mňa zapôsobilo to posledné video. to je ozaj riadna šupa. svetu mier!!!
the repelling concept is good, but every day the russians lose control of more territory, that isn’t repelling.
russia can’t effectively defend itself (loss of territory) nor can it effectively impose its will (failed ukrainian incursion). there is a curious lack of will to defend russian interests. 300 billion stolen, nordstream 1&2 destroyed, russia kicked around in syria and ukraine, russia attacked and territory occupied. black sea fleet half sunk. all of this looks horrible and much more than just a “special operation”.
dumb ameri-moron–black sea fleet intact–syria has reasserted sovereignty—russia posses more west assets than vice versa and much has been nationalized—nordstream half funded by 3 eu nations…russia can obliterate all former ukraine if required in 2 weeks
the dumb amerikan trolls make sf entertaining
