The attack began this morning in the direction of the settlements of Cherkasskaya Konopelka and Ulanok. It involved up to two mechanized battalions on armored vehicles. The assault groups made several waves of attacks, but the Russian “North” group of troops repelled the attacks.
“As of 2 p.m., the attacks by Ukrainian armed formations have been repulsed, the populated areas are under the control of Russian troops. The enemy’s losses amounted to six tanks, three demolition vehicles, three infantry fighting vehicles and 14 armored fighting vehicles,” the ministry said.
In addition, the “North” troop group continues fighting in the areas of Bogdanovka, Viktorovka, Gogolevka, Guevo, Daryino, Zazulevka, Kazachya Loknya, Kolmakov, Kositsa, Kurilovka, Lebedevka, Loknya, Malaya Loknya, Martynovka, Maryevka, Makhnovka, Nikolayevka, Nikolsky, Novaya Sorochina, Oleshnya, Pogrebki, Rubanshchina, Sverdlikovo, Staraya Sorochina, Suja, Cherkasskoye Porechnoye and Yuzhny.
According to the Defense Ministry, a total of more than 57,860 Ukrainian servicemen were killed during the fighting in the Kursk direction.
The scale of the conflict described here is staggering, especially with the heavy losses reported on both sides. It really highlights how intense and ongoing these battles are, affecting so many small communities in the region. The detailed list of locations shows just how widespread the fighting is, which must be incredibly difficult for the people living there. War is truly devastating on so many levels, and I hope that someday these cycles of violence come to an end 🕊️🙏
Is anyone else skeptical about these casualty numbers and the constant reports of repelled attacks? It feels like war reporting is becoming more about propaganda than facts. How can anyone verify such huge numbers without independent sources? This just sounds like a never-ending cycle of claims with no real transparency 🤔
Just casually scrolling through my morning news and got hit with some serious tank math and battle geography. Honestly, if these place names were a fantasy novel map, I’d be less confused about who’s winning. Also, 57,860 troops lost in one direction sounds like a number I’d triple-check before pinning on my fridge. War stats never come with a user manual, do they? 🤔
The scale of this conflict is overwhelming, and the details about the losses really highlight how intense the fighting has been 😞💔. It’s hard to imagine the impact on everyone involved.
The intensity of this conflict is truly overwhelming to read about, and it really puts into perspective the resilience and determination of the troops involved 💪🔥.

Hoping for a future where peace can prevail and these places can experience calm again 🌿✨.
