The battle, both in the Kursk reion and in Donetsk seems to gathering steam. The Russians reported that Russian forces took control of several settlements in the Donetsk region in eastern Ukraine and struck Ukrainian ammunition depots, electronic warfare stations, and counter-battery radars on front lines over the past 24 hours. The Russian air defense system intercepted multiple Ukrainian rockets, aerial bombs, and several drones, the report said.
Moreover, Russian forces repelled a Ukrainian attack in the Kursk region in western Russia and struck targets such as Ukrainian armored vehicles.
On the same day, the General Staff of the Ukrainian Armed Forces issued a report claiming that Ukrainian forces continued to engage Russian forces in multiple directions, repelling several Russian attacks as of Tuesday afternoon. The situation on the front lines remains tense, with the most intense fighting occurring in the directions of Pokrovsk and Kurakhove in eastern Ukraine.
In addition, the Russian Defense Ministry said that from Monday night to the early Tuesday morning, Russian air defense systems shot down 144 Ukrainian drones over various regions of Russia. On the same day, the Ukrainian Air Force also claimed to have shot down dozens of drones launched by Russian forces.
According to the Russian Federal Air Transport Agency (Rosaviatsiya), many Moscow airports implemented temporary restrictions on Tuesday.
On Monday evening, the Ukrainian Air Force announced that Russian forces had launched multiple groups of attack drones in different directions within Ukrainian territory.
On Tuesday, the Ukrainian Air Force said on social media that in the early hours of the day, Russian forces launched two missiles and 46 drones towards Ukraine, of which Ukrainian forces shot down 38 drones.
Kiev City Military Administration (KCMA) Tuesday said on social media that at around 04:00, air raid sirens were activated in Kiev, lasting about two hours. All Russian drones approaching the city were destroyed.
In both sectors, Donetsk and Kursk, no decisive progress seems to have been made in the last few months.
