In the Kursk direction, the Ukrainian military has activated the use of army aviation, a number of sources report. The helicopters, believed to belong to the 18th separate army aviation brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, are based in Poltava and are now actively participating in combat operations in the area.

According to military officials, helicopters are used for various tasks, including transporting personnel and ammunition, as well as evacuating the wounded. This significantly increases the mobility and efficiency of Ukrainian troops, allowing them to more quickly respond to changes on the front and support their units in the field.

The activation of the Ukrainian army aviation in this direction indicates the serious intentions of the Ukrainian side to gain a foothold in the region and continue offensive operations.
