Ukraine Forces Enter Russia’s Belgorod: Zelensky’s Statement
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has confirmed that Ukrainian forces are conducting operations within Russia’s Belgorod region, marking the first official acknowledgment of such activities. In a recent address, Zelensky stated that the war must “return to where it came from,” justifying these incursions as necessary to protect Ukraine’s border regions, particularly Sumy and Kharkiv.
Ukrainian troops reportedly control approximately 13 square kilometers near the village of Demidovka in Belgorod. This strategic move aims to divert Russian forces from their offensives in eastern Ukraine, alleviating pressure on embattled areas such as Donetsk. These developments occur amidst ongoing peace negotiations, with U.S. President Donald Trump expressing frustration over continued Russian bombings despite claims of progress in talks. The Kremlin has shown skepticism toward proposed ceasefire terms, complicating diplomatic efforts.
Concurrently, Russia’s military has announced efforts to push Ukrainian forces out of the neighboring Kursk region, reporting the recapture of the settlement of Guyevo. These claims remain unverified, and the situation continues to evolve.
