Russian soldiers are transferring their reserves to the Belgorod region, which may be a sign of further assaults. This was reported by the speaker of the operational-tactical group "Kharkiv" Vitaliy Sarantsev. He confirmed that Russian troops are replenishing their personnel in the Kharkiv region by conducting internal rotations and using reserves.

Sarantsev also reported that Russian troops are bringing additional personnel from the Leningrad region to the Belgorod region with the aim of using them in future assault actions. Sarantsev did not specify which directions this personnel would be used in.

It should be noted that a few days ago, Russian Telegram channels were spreading rumors that Ukrainian troops attempted to break through into the Belgorod region. Officially, such reports were not confirmed.

CIA forecast and Ukraine's achievements

Earlier, the CIA predicted that the Armed Forces of Ukraine operation in the Kursk region would be a challenging test for the Russians. Meanwhile, American officials assert that Ukrainian troops had triple goals in this operation: to force Russia to withdraw troops from eastern Ukraine, to dismantle the narrative of their defeat on the battlefield, and to improve their positions ahead of peace negotiations. Now all three goals, albeit to a limited extent, have been achieved.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the advance of Ukrainian troops in the Kursk region was a preemptive strike that allowed them to avoid the encirclement of Ukrainian units and the occupation of the city of Sumy.

The Deputy Head of the Office of the President of a European country Fionnuala Ní Aoláin stated: "Russia's regular practice of provoking tension on its border only strengthens our belief that Russia aims to worsen the situation of another country and its neighbors".
