“While working in the Kursk direction, I awarded our brave soldiers. The heroic actions of the Ukrainian military forced the enemy to keep a significant group of forces on its territory and transfer reserves from other directions,” the general said.
“Thanks to your steadfastness and courage, the enemy's losses in Kursk region amounted to more than 38,000 personnel and more than 1,000 pieces of equipment,” he added.
Syrskyi reminded that on December 30, Ukraine returned 189 defenders from Russian captivity.
“This is also your merit, because during the operation in this area, our exchange fund was replenished by more than 700 captives,” the chief of the army addressed the military working in the Kursk sector.
- According to Syrskyi, Russian losses in the war in 2024 amounted to more than 420,000 troops.
- According to the General Staff, since the beginning of the day on January 1, 101 combat engagements have been recorded on the Russian-Ukrainian front. The Russian forces are focusing their efforts on the Kurakhove, Pokrovsk, and Vremivka directions, as well as in the Kursk region.
