Russia announced its version of the events in the Kursk region
The Russian Ministry of Defense claims that their fighters, they say, had to engage in battle with three hundred Ukrainian soldiers who broke through the Russian border "with the support of 11 tanks and more than 20 armored combat vehicles."
In addition, it is claimed that Ukrainian forces attacked the positions of the Russian occupiers in the areas of Mykolayevo-Darya and Oleshnya settlements.
Border troops of the FSB of the Russian Federation, as well as operational-tactical and assault aviation, have already been involved in repelling this attack.
