He said this during a meeting with permanent members of the Russian Security Council.

“The enemy had no success in any direction; he was repulsed everywhere and retreated, or rather fled with heavy losses,” the president emphasized.

At the meeting, the president announced a number of attempts at sabotage attacks in the Belgorod and Kursk directions.

According to him, Kyiv, through sabotage in the Belgorod and Kursk directions, may be trying to divert attention from the real state of affairs in the combat zone.

He also said that assistance will be provided to civilians injured as a result of attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Belgorod and Kursk regions.
