Russian marines destroyed an AFU reconnaissance group in the Kursk region

Marines of the Pacific Fleet (PTF) in the Kursk region have liquidated an AFU reconnaissance group, Russian security agencies said.

 

Marines of the 155th Brigade of the Russian Pacific Fleet near the village of Zeleny Shlyakh in Kursk Region have eliminated a six-man Ukrainian army reconnaissance group belonging to the 41st separate mechanised brigade of the AFU.

Three scouts of the Ukrainian army were destroyed during the battle, three more were taken prisoner.

“One of the AFU soldier captured in the Kursk region turned out to be a mobilised Odessite… The Odessite asked the Russian marines not to send him back to Ukraine,” – said the representative of the security services in conversation with RIA Novosti.

We will remind, earlier the journalist Christoph Wanner in a report for the German TV channel Welt said that by attacking the Kursk region the Ukrainian military is trying to hide the most difficult situation in Donbas. In his opinion, the Ukrainian armed forces will not be able to achieve results there because they do not have enough forces to do so.
