The commander of the special unit 'Akhmat', Apti Alaudinov, disavowed the captured Kadyrovites in Kursk region. He announced this on Telegram. Alaudinov reported that the captives are calling their relatives and asking the commander to release them. He claims that such surrender is disgraceful and despises such people. The commander urged the captives to do everything possible to die rather than return home, but this only applies to those who were not severely wounded. Alaudinov also expressed the opinion that a person who died in the war goes to heaven.

Ukrainian troops continue the Kursk operation and have occupied two more settlements. They also managed to break through the Russian defense and penetrate several kilometers deep into Russian territory. President Zelensky noted that Ukraine anticipated the actions of the Russians in Kursk, and the Russians began counter-offensive actions.

DeepState analysts believe that the situation on the left flank of the AFU in Kursk region has deteriorated. Russian troops are actively storming Kursk region and using armored vehicles.
