Ukraine has launched a fresh offensive in Russia’s Kursk region, the Russian defence ministry says.
In a statement, the ministry said efforts to destroy the Ukrainian attack groups were ongoing. Officials in Ukraine have also suggested an operation is under way.
Ukraine first launched its incursion into Russia’s Kursk region in August last year, seizing a chunk of territory.
In recent months, Russian forces have made big gains in the area, pushing the Ukrainians back, but failing to eject them entirely.
