According to the military analytical center "Rybar", in the Kursk direction, as of 13:00, the tense situation remains. Despite overnight reports of supposedly significant advances by Ukrainian forces, there have been no significant changes in the configuration of the front since last evening.
In the Sudzhansky district, Russian troops continue to confidently control the eastern part of the administrative center, but the center and western outskirts of Sudzha remain in the so-called “gray zone”, where neither side has complete control. To the south, in the area of the small Psel River, the Ukrainian military is active; their presence was recorded both in Plekhovo and in the vicinity of the village of Borki and the village of Spalnoye.
Analysts note that we are most likely talking about mobile sabotage and reconnaissance groups (DRG) that operate in the area. Despite this, in the reports of officials they are mentioned as large units of the air assault troops of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which raises questions. At the same time, it is not yet possible to say that the outskirts of Plekhovo have been completely cleared of the enemy - the main hostilities continue to the north of this settlement.
In the Belovsky district, after night reports appeared about a “breakthrough” of Ukrainian forces, there was no confirmation of their advance deeper into the territory. Thus, the situation on this section of the front remains under the control of Russian forces, although it retains elements of tension.
