PUTIN'S WAR: After the Kursk invasion! "It keeps boiling over here! I only have one suspicion!"
In response to Ukraine's invasion of the Kursk region, Russia is moving some of its troops from its Baltic Sea exclave Kaliningrad, according to Lithuanian Defense Minister Laurynas Kasciunas. "They need more resources and are trying to withdraw them from other areas," Kasciunas told the Baltic agency BNS. He did not provide any further details. Kaliningrad lies between the EU and NATO countries Poland and Lithuania. The Russian side did not provide any information on this.
The Ukrainian armed forces have been attacking the Russian region of Kursk with a large-scale ground offensive since August 6. According to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, the army has now captured 74 towns in the Kursk region - twice as many as the Russian side has stated. Neither of these figures can be verified.
According to Kasciunas, the advance has great symbolic significance for Ukraine. "First and foremost, it is a morale boost, which is of course very important," he said. Ukraine has been resisting the Russian invasion for almost two and a half years and has for the first time moved the fight into enemy territory with its own troops.
Kasciunas met with Zelensky on Tuesday evening in Kiev. According to a recording published by the Ukrainian side, he even spoke of a "demilitarization" of the Kaliningrad region, which is happening thanks to the bravery of the Ukrainian military and decisions made by Kiev. In fact, the Russian military is still present in Kaliningrad.
