Kremlin's claims of success as Putin addresses Kursk conflict
- The Russian military is pushing back the enemy from the Kursk region. There is no doubt that the region will be liberated, Vladimir Putin warned during the annual conference.
Many reports given by Russian media or representatives are part of propaganda. Such information is part of the information war conducted by the Russian Federation.
Vladimir Putin convened an annual conference where he answers a series of carefully pre-selected questions. The topic of the war in Ukraine and the Ukrainian offensive in the Kursk region quickly arose.
A journalist from the TASS agency asked Putin how he assesses the progress of the nearly three-year ongoing war in Ukraine and whether victory is nearer.
Putin stated that "the situation is changing radically." - Movement occurs along the entire front line. Daily. It's not about advancing by 110, 220, 330 yards. Our fighters are occupying and reclaiming territory measured in square miles, he argued.
- The Armed Forces of Ukraine are simply sending their special forces to the Kursk region to meet their demise. The losses are tremendous. Honestly, I've never seen so many abandoned bodies of enemies, Putin tried to persuade.
