MOSCOW (Reuters) – Ukraine’s offensive in Russia’s Kursk region had killed at least 31 civilians and wounded 256 as of Sept. 5, the Russian Foreign Ministry said on Monday.
Ukraine on Aug. 6 launched the biggest foreign attack on Russia since World War Two, bursting through the border into the western Kursk region supported by swarms of drones and heavy weaponry, including Western-made arms.
Russia said 131,000 civilians had left the most dangerous areas of the Kursk region.
