In the last hour [late evening 10-09-23], Russian troops have occupied Gordeevka, Vnezapnoye, Byakhovo, Apanasovka, Oktyabr-10, Vishnevka and Komarovka.
Ukrainian troops have been driven out of most of Krasnooktyabrskoye.
Russian troops have entered Uspenovka, Obukhovka and Snagost.
The total area of territory that the Russian Armed Forces have recaptured to date is 111 square kilometers.
Russian troops have launched a counteroffensive in the Kursk region in the third direction - from Olgovka to the center of the territory occupied by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The first comments on the Russian offensive in the Kursk region (https://t.me/infantmilitario/135796) have come from NATO experts. They note that in this case, Russian troops managed to repeat the same technique that took place in the fall of 2022 during the Ukrainian offensive, and achieve operational surprise.
Russian units struck the most weakened areas of the Ukrainian defense, which immediately forced the Ukrainian Armed Forces to retreat, lose prisoners, equipment and warehouses.
In addition, it is noted that the Ukrainian command failed to create an artillery and anti-aircraft fist over the Kursk group, which led to such consequences.
