On the night of August 7, the illegitimate president of the Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin, was informed about the situation in the Kursk region after the breakthrough of Ukrainian forces there. In addition, the dictator was lied to that civilians were being deported from the border areas, although the local population denied this.

Points of attention

  • After the breakthrough of Ukrainian forces in the Kursk region, Putin ordered the evacuation of the local population.
  • Eyewitnesses claim that civilians are forced to leave the shelled areas on their own.
  • Ukrainian forces took control of several settlements in the Kursk region.

Putin already knows about the events in the Kursk region

The acting governor of the Kursk region of the Russian Federation Oleksiy Smirnov talked with the Russian dictator about this.

He told Putin that the situation in the Kursk region is "under control", but, despite this, they allegedly already organized the evacuation of residents "from the shelled border areas", where temporary accommodation points were prepared for them and provided with everything necessary.

However, civilians claim that they are engaged in self-evacuation, because representatives of the local authorities simply ran away.

According to Smirnov, doctors from Moscow and St. Petersburg went to the region.

Putin himself called the recent events "a large-scale provocation by the Armed Forces of Ukraine."

According to the results of my conversation with the acting governor of the Kursk region, a number of civil agencies have been instructed to provide the necessary assistance to the residents of the region. I also ask the government to deal with this immediately, — said the dictator.
