According to the General Staff, there is information about the operation of air defense systems in the Kursk region and explosions in the areas of at least four electric substations.

As a result, power outages are recorded in the Ponyrovsky, Kursk and Solntsevsky districts of the Kursk region.

The operation was carried out by the fighters of the Special Operations Center "A" of the Security Service of Ukraine in cooperation with other components of the Defense Forces.

The General Staff emphasized that the industry of the Russian Federation, which works for the war against Ukraine, is a legitimate target. At the same time, the substations that were attacked ensure the functioning of the railway, which the occupiers use to transport weapons and military equipment.

Measures to undermine the enemy's military and economic potential will continue until the invaders stop their armed aggression against the Ukrainian people.
