Ukraine denies Putin's claim that Russian forces regained Kursk

What to know about the battle for Russia's Kursk region - Seymour Tribune

Nearly nine months after losing chunks of the Kursk region to a surprise Ukrainian incursion, Russia announced that its troops have fully reclaimed the border territory. Ukraine denied it, saying the fighting was still ongoing. If confirmed, Moscow’s victory in Kursk would deprive Kyiv of key leverage in U.S.-brokered efforts to negotiate an end to the more than 3-year-old war by exchanging its gains for some of Russia-occupied land in Ukraine. …

Already a month ago, it was said from Moscow that the Ukrainian forces were almost driven out of the Russian Kursk region. According to Russia, they are now said to have completely withdrawn. Kiev rejects this.
