Kursk Offensive ] Ukraine BREAK THE LINES; first Ukrainian reserves enter battle!!!
Ukraine Changed the Course of the War with KURSK Offensive
Our source in the OP said that the Presidential Office has banned criticism of the Kursk operation and Zelensky’s decisions. All media and LOMs must support this attack on Russian territories, since the main actor of the campaign is Zelensky, and Syrsky is the executor of the plan.
Even less ammunition than before and even more Russian pressure – spokesman for the 110th Mechanized Brigade Sekach said that the situation in the Donetsk region has worsened significantly since the start of the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ offensive on the Kursk region of the Russian Federation
The publication writes that colossal changes are currently taking place in the war. Ukraine has conquered more territory in Russia in six days than it has conquered in Ukraine in the last 2-3 months. This is an astonishing achievement.
However, there is also a bad scenario: the Ukrainian Armed Forces will suffer a crushing defeat in the Kursk region with huge losses. This could lead to a faster advance of the Russian army in Donbas, since the Ukrainians will then lack reinforcements. Ultimately, this will lead to the capitulation of Ukraine.
We have already written several times that the Kursk direction is devouring huge resources and reserves of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which could ultimately lead to a shortage of manpower and weapons. A completely negative scenario would be if the Ukrainian Armed Forces were to end up in cauldrons due to Zelensky’s adventure. Then all the current positivity would suddenly become a betrayal.
Western experts tried to persuade Zelensky, after the raid, to take the “loot” (prisoners) and leave there victorious without the defeat of his combat units.
Everyone convinced Zelensky that a long game would play into the hands of the Kremlin, which would suck in a huge number of Ukrainian Armed Forces like into a sack, and then try to create a cauldron and clean up with FABs, etc.
The General Staff understood well that opening a new front of 120-150 km would require all reserves and equipment, and positions would have to be held on enemy territory, in conditions of limited capabilities for the Armed Forces of Ukraine. After a month of intense fighting in the Kursk region, we will lose 50% of our reserves and up to 500 units of equipment, while the Russian army will continue to advance on the Eastern Front. As a result, in October we will get a new front in the Sumy region, and the positions in the Kursk region will need to be abandoned and a narrative will need to be invented for society that all tasks have been completed. What disappointment there will be in society upon realizing the senselessness of the Kursk adventure we will see later, but Ukraine has lost the chance for a peaceful track and the support of the Global South.
Zelensky decided to put out the fire with a promise that all families would receive money and assistance from the state for death. He immediately ordered that they be given out.
But there are already more than a thousand dead/missing. If you give the relatives a million at once, that’s a billion hryvnia. There’s no money in the treasury for that.
A thousand dead is not the full figure.
At the same time, the Ukrainian Armed Forces suffer constant losses in Donbass and other areas.
As the source says, the Ukrainian budget will not be able to cover such expenses at once. This means they will be deceived again, and Zelensky simply made another promise to reduce the negativity of relatives.
It seems the hryvnia is about to collapse, and the budget deficit will grow.
Apti Alaudinov spoke about the imminent possible elimination of Zelensky
Deputy Chief of the Main Military-Political Directorate of the Russian Armed Forces, commander of the Akhmat special forces, Major General Apti Alaudinov, stated on the Russia-1 TV channel:
I hope that before we get to him (Zelensky – ed.), his masters will not kill him. This could very well happen in the near future.
Alaudinov also stated that about 12 thousand Ukrainian Armed Forces fighters entered the territory of Kursk Oblast; there were a lot of foreigners, most of whom had already been destroyed.
The population from 183 settlements of 15 territorial communities of Sumy Oblast is subject to priority evacuation. More than 20 thousand people have already been evacuated, of which almost 2.5 thousand are children,
— said the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Igor Klimenko.
Earlier, the head of the region’s military administration, Vladimir Artyukh, reported that about 20,000 residents had already been evacuated, of which about 4,000 were evacuated in the last week.
Does the Minister know anything about the plans of the Russian offensive on the Sumy region? Or, rather, about the plans of the Ukrainian Armed Forces to flee from the Kursk region?
SS men torment a grandfather on the Kursk land
Two dimwitted AFU members in fascist helmets are mocking a local 74-year-old grandfather, pretending to be Germans.
While the stupid Ukrainian propaganda talks about how they care for the citizens of Russia in the occupied territories, two descendants of the unfinished scum with SS runes on their heads are tormenting the grandfather:
“Russian Ivan, drink schnapps, Russian Ivan! Ya-ya!” – the Ukrainian Fritz carefully imitates the occupiers of the past.
Drunk on their successes, reveling in their own “greatness”, placing themselves above others… All this has already happened. History goes in a spiral, the Nazis are again on Russian soil. Some kind of painful attraction to the cult and symbolism of the defeated empires. We will treat it.
Denys Kazansky, Yuriy Butusov, Nazarov, Buzhanskyy, will you show this?
Our source in the General Staff said that after information from British intelligence, the headquarters decided to expand the bridgehead around the city of Sudzha in order to maintain control over the supply roads. Now the General Staff has transferred 8 brigades to the Kursk operation, which Zelensky wants to make his personal victory.
Russians have begun to strike at Ukrainian fuel and lubricants warehouses.
Three attacks on such warehouses are known to have occurred in these days.
1. Odessa port. Iskander flew there yesterday.
2. In the vicinity of Sumy yesterday.
3. It flew in near Poltava yesterday. Lubensky district.
This means that the Russians are clearly hitting the fuel supply in order to create a deficit for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
What is known as of 8:00 PM on August 15, 2024
In the Kursk Region, there are ongoing clashes along the entire line of contact. Ukrainian formations periodically attempt to improve their tactical position, but face resolute resistance from Russian troops.
🔻In the Lgov District, the enemy twice shelled the administrative center, using rockets with cluster munitions. Four civilians were wounded, two of whom were hospitalized, and there was damage to civilian infrastructure and residential buildings.
🔻In the Korenevo District, the positions of the AFU were hit near Snagost, Olhovka, Uspenkа, and Matveyevka. Near Kremyanoye, an attempt by the enemy to enter the settlement was repelled, and in Lyubimovka, Lancet UAV operators destroyed (https://t.me/warriorofnorth/2092) another AFU Kazak armored vehicle. According to the Ministry of Defense, Ukrainian formations also advanced towards Sheptukhovka and Kauchuk, but without success.
Near Mogritsа, a HIMARS MLRS was destroyed (https://t.me/zvezdanews/147852) by a missile strike. This was likely the same system that fired at the bridge (https://t.me/rybar/62798) in Glushkovo at night, resulting in the detonation of its ammunition.
🔻In the Sudzha District, Russian troops hit enemy concentration areas near Yuzhnoye, Zaoleshenkа, and Mirnoye. Battles continue on the approaches to Martynivka and near the village of Agronom.
The enemy continues to post footage from the western and central parts of Sudzha. Representatives of the Italian (https://t.me/belarusian_silovik/39321) press have also visited the occupied city. At the same time, no video materials have been posted from the eastern outskirts by either side.
🔻In the Belovo District, Russian troops cleared the settlement of Krupets. Earlier, footage was published of the shelling (https://t.me/dva_majors/49730) of Ukrainian positions in Kamyshnoe, a few kilometers to the east, where fighting continues.
❗️The Commander-in-Chief of the AFU, Oleksandr Syrskyi, announced the creation of a “military commandant’s office” in the occupied territory of the Kursk Region, which he claims will be responsible for “maintaining law and order and ensuring the priority needs of the population.” However, in reality, this is just another media ploy by the Ukrainian authorities, which will effectively operate only virtually.
Kursk Direction: Fighting in Belovsky District and Destruction of AFU Column near Safonivka
What is known by the end of August 15, 2024
In Kursk Region, Russian forces are repelling attacks by the enemy in various sectors in the border zone. Over the past day, about three dozen assaults were repelled. Despite a slight decrease in the intensity of clashes compared to previous days, the situation remains far from stabilized.
🔻In Lgovsky District, the voluntary evacuation of the local population continues, while Ukrainian formations do not stop the artillery shelling.
🔻In Korenevo District, in the area of Safonivka, there are details of the repulsion of a recent attack by an AFU armor group (https://t.me/harry_homolsky/6790) of at least five vehicles: the enemy column was ambushed and shot from two sides, the personnel was destroyed.
🔻In Sudzha District, the situation by the end of the day did not undergo significant changes. The area continues to see fighting and sorties by Ukrainian sabotage groups. In the area of Malaya Loknya in Nikolayevka, a member of the local self-defense militia burned (https://t.me/warhistoryalconafter/179669) an abandoned AFU BMP-1 with a gasoline canister.
🔻In Belovsky District, in the evening, clashes (https://t.me/dva_majors/49922) began for the settlement of Spalnoye near the recently liberated village of Krupets.

Kursk Direction: Evacuation of Population from Glushkovsky District and Strikes on AFU Equipment
What is known as of 3:00 PM on August 15, 2024
In the Kursk Region, Russian forces continue to contain the onslaught of Ukrainian formations attempting to improve their tactical position in several sectors of the front.
🔻In the Glushkovsky District, due to the deteriorating operational situation, a forced evacuation of the entire population has been announced. In the morning, unconfirmed reports came in about the alleged start of clashes on the border in this area, but there is no objective evidence of this.
Overnight, the enemy struck the bridge (https://t.me/zhest_kursk_146/24034) in Glushkovo with HIMARS MLRS: at the moment, due to damage to the roadway, movement across it is possible, although difficult. The situation in the Tetkinо area remains tense but stable.
🔻In the Korenevo District, there are battles on the approaches to Korenevo. Earlier, the AFU attempted to bypass the settlement from the south through Krasnooktyabr’skoye and from the north through Vetreno, but all attacks were repelled. There is no information about changes in the configuration of the front line over the past day.
🔻In the Sudzha District, Russian UAV operators are striking enemy armored vehicles in Mikhailovka (https://t.me/iamsniper/6320) and Bondarevka (https://t.me/warriorofnorth/2091), which are currently under AFU control. As for reports of the clearing of Martynivka, the settlement has changed hands repeatedly, so it would be premature to speak of confident control over the village at the moment.
🔻In the Belovo District, there are reports of the destruction of a sabotage and reconnaissance group in the settlement of Borki. Recently, in this area, an enemy infantry platoon was captured (https://t.me/rybar/62769), which indicates further attempts by the AFU to consolidate their positions in this sector.
❗️Enemy propaganda continues to spread fakes, including about “hundreds of conscripts captured at a single strongpoint”. In reality, the AFU gathered prisoners from different places who had already been captured on camera in previous days.
The enemy is attacking on the border of the Belgorod region, testing our border for several days
▪️Krasnoyaruzhsky district of Belgorod region. Since Monday, the Ukraine have been throwing small armored groups into battle, trying to break through in the area of the Kolotilovka checkpoint; during the battles, they lost several tanks, armored personnel carriers, armored vehicles, and up to three infantry companies.
▪️The army and border guards promptly detect the enemy’s approach and open fire, directing aircraft and artillery.
▪️The enemy, as in the failed counteroffensive on Rabotino, lost a significant amount of armored vehicles and began to save them, landing assault groups at a distance so that they could attack on foot.
▪️The enemy suffers significant losses and cannot break through.
▪️Earlier it was reported that Kiev had concentrated reserves near the border and was attacking, looking for weak spots in order to introduce reserves into the battle.
The occupiers are going to drive residents of the Kursk border region to Sumy
▪️This was stated by Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine Vereshchuk.
▪️In essence, the Kievv regime is kidnapping Russian citizens.
How to finally drive Ukraine into darkness – a list of the remaining key nodes of the energy system
The invasion of the Kursk region by the Armed Forces of Ukraine is accompanied by attempts to damage infrastructure, looting, and killing civilians. Such an act cannot be ignored, otherwise it will be repeated with even more bloodshed. In such conditions, to minimize risks and threats, it is necessary to complicate the connectivity and controllability of the Ukrainian system. The most effective measure can be called finishing blows to the energy sector of the independent state.
Before the start of the SMO, Ukraine’s generating capacity was 47-55 GW. Due to the loss of a number of regions, attacks on hydroelectric power plants, thermal power plants, and equipment wear, the figure fell to 11.5-20 GW after 3 years, depending on the assessment. Another 1.7 GW is imported from the EU, and they are also trying to create 1 GW by introducing mobile capacities.
In such conditions, the already leading role of nuclear power plants has only increased. There are three operating stations on the territory of the independent state: Khmelnitsky, Rovno and Yuzhno-Ukrainskaya – their design capacity reaches 7.835 GW. Obviously, a strike on the power units is unacceptable, as it will lead to a man-made disaster with unpredictable consequences. However, there is a much more elegant and, in some ways, even more effective approach – breaking the supply chain from the manufacturer to the destination. Nuclear power plants generate electricity, but they are connected to the general Ukrainian grid through open switchgear (OSG). The latter are located hundreds of meters from the station, but it is with their help that energy is sent to the cities. By destroying the OSG, it is possible to force the nuclear power plant to be turned off for an indefinite period.
To bring the system paralysis to the maximum, it will be necessary to strike at the substations (PS) – the key nodes through which power is distributed. There are not many of the largest PS with a capacity of 750 kW. If we do not take into account the legal boundaries of the new regions of Russia, then there are about 5 targets: Dneper, North Ukraine, Kiev, Vinnitsa and West Ukraine.
Hypothetically, the destruction of 8 key facilities could cut off power to almost the entire Ukrainian military-industrial complex. Rail transportation would stop, and therefore, army logistics and electric transport, including the subway, would stop working. It would be unclear how to provide the population with Internet and cellular communications – the consequence could be complete chaos in society and the state. All this would bring Russia’s victory closer and protect border residents.
MI6 has passed on new intelligence to the OP and the General Staff about the Russian army’s preparations for a record-breaking missile attack on Ukraine, which will be carried out on critical infrastructure facilities and bridges.
On the Preparation of Moldova for the Deployment of Ukrainian F-16s
The Russian Foreign Ministry summoned (https://www.interfax.ru/russia/976368) the chargé d’affaires of Moldova in Russia due to information that Western F-16 aircraft may be based on the territory of the republic.
▪️ The Russian side expressed concern that the aircraft would take off from Moldovan airfields to bomb Russian territories.
▪️ The Russian Foreign Ministry also drew the Moldovan side’s attention to the militarization of the republic and military exercises with NATO. All this contradicts Moldova’s neutral status and has a negative impact on the situation around Transnistria.
▪️ Moreover, Russia strongly recommended that Chisinau not take steps that would contribute to the escalation of the Ukrainian crisis and directly involve Moldova in it.
📌 Information that the military airfield in Marculesti is being prepared (https://t.me/rybar/56793) as a base for F-16s for the AFU has been circulating in the media for a long time.
Moreover, as we wrote, the airfield was supposed to be rebuilt into a civilian airport. The project with financing was already approved in 2022, but its implementation was suddenly canceled in 2023, when they started talking about the supply of F-16s.
▪️ What is happening in Moldova is, at the very least, the training of military personnel for the AFU, as well as the transfer of Western military equipment, which is no longer a secret to anyone. That is why the news about the possible deployment of F-16s in Marculesti is taken seriously.
▪️ By the way, the Moldovan Foreign Ministry predictably denied (https://noi.md/ru/politika/mid-moldovy-oproverg-sluhi-o-razmeshhenii-samoletov-f-16-dlya-ukrainy) the information. The department also suddenly referred to the neutral status of the republic when it became convenient. After all, the team of President Maia Sandu actively criticizes the neutral status and gravitates towards the idea of joining NATO.
🔻At the same time, steps to de facto cancel the neutral status and actively exploit the airfield in Marculesti should be expected (https://t.me/rybar/62485) only after Sandu’s re-election for a second term in October. For now, the task facing the president’s office is to ensure the electoral process.
situation as of 4:00 pm on August 15, 2024
While Ukrainian formations continue to redeploy additional forces to Kursk Region (https://t.me/rybar/62798), on the Oleksandro-Kalinovo direction, Russian troops continue to rapidly break through the enemy’s defenses, further expanding the zone of control in the Dzerzhynsk agglomeration.
▪️In Druzhba, Russian Armed Forces units were able to advance along Sadova Street and approach the northern exit of the settlement at the end of last week. Further advancement in this area will allow cutting off the “wedge” near the Siversky Donets – Donbas canal, where the AFU still hold positions. At the same time, Russian assault troops were able to reach Zarechna Street (https://t.me/priviyazkasvo/158) in the central part of the settlement.
▪️In the neighboring Kirovo, the main clashes unfolded in the area of Beethoven Street. At the same time, Ukrainian formations made several counterattack attempts – during one of the attacks, the enemy came from the direction of Dzerzhynsk on a pickup truck to Bazarnyi Lane, where the disembarked infantry immediately came under artillery fire. As of today, this area has been cleared of Ukrainian formations and has come under the control of the Russian Armed Forces.
Meanwhile, to worsen the situation of the AFU in the settlement, Russian troops attacked in the direction of the “Pivnichna” mine dump, the territory of which is currently already occupied by the advanced assault units of the Russian Armed Forces. The waste heap is important because it allows overlooking the entire private sector, from which the enemy has been striking.
▪️Yesterday evening, footage appeared online confirming the liberation (https://t.me/opersvodki/22238) of Artemovo (Zalizne). In recent days, Russian troops have controlled almost the entire settlement, except for the waste heap of the Artem mine and the western outskirts, where the enemy had been fiercely resisting until recently. Now, with the liberation of Artemovo, the Russian Armed Forces can both intensify the offensive on Dzerzhynsk and advance towards Nelepivka.
▪️In Novhorodske (New York), Russian units expanded the zone of control along Molodizhnaya Street. At the moment, Russian servicemen are storming the AFU positions near School No. 38 and the phenol plant, which, according to the latest data, the Russian Armed Forces have outflanked from the east, reaching Kyivska Street. The capture of the plant itself will inflict significant damage on the enemy’s defenses, further reinforcing the need for the withdrawal of forces towards Dzerzhynsk.
▪️The situation has also become clearer in the east of the settlement, which has practically come under the control of Russian troops. The Russian Armed Forces have cleared the “pocket” between Shyroka Balka and Novhorodske, reaching the private sector of the latter, consolidating along Kooperatyvna and Berehova streets.
At the moment, Ukrainian formations still maintain control over the northeastern outskirts, from which they will most likely also be forced to retreat towards Nelepivka in the near future.
Situation as of 9:00 PM on August 15, 2024
In addition to the Oleksandro-Kalinovo direction (https://t.me/rybar/62804), the deplorable situation of the Ukrainian formations is also unfolding in the Pokrovsk sector, where over the past few days the Russian troops have been able to significantly expand the zone of control. At the moment, the enemy is preparing to defend the area of Hrodivka — Novohrodivka.
Both of these settlements are the last major defense lines of the AFU before Pokrovsk — one of the key transport hubs of the “Donbas” grouping of the enemy.
▪️On the northern flank, the Russian troops are engaged in battles on the approaches to Novotoretske, where there is a crossing over the Kazennyy Torets River. Earlier, the Russian Armed Forces liberated (https://t.me/rybar/62747) Ivanovka and Lysychne, which allowed them to reach the outskirts of the settlement, overcoming several defensive lines of the enemy.
North of Novotoretske, the AFU have equipped a major fortified area covering the approaches to the N-32 Pokrovsk — Kostiantynivka highway. Likely, the main efforts of the Russian Armed Forces on the northern flank in the near future will be concentrated on the liberation of Vozdvyzhenka and further advancement towards the highway with the aim of cutting it off.
▪️In the central sector, after the successful capture of the AFU positions in the area of the brick factory ruins, the Russian troops entered the southeastern outskirts of Hrodivka. Assault groups of the Russian Armed Forces are gradually advancing along Donetska Street, while the territory of the clay quarry located to the south remains in the “gray zone”.
The offensive is also underway northeast of the settlement, where the Russian troops are pushing the Ukrainian formations out of their positions in the forest belts. The enemy notes the high efficiency and number of Russian drones disrupting the supply and destroying the AFU armored vehicles.
❗️In the area of the O-05-44 highway, immediately after Hrodivka, the enemy is equipping a new defense line intended to stop the advance of the Russian troops in this sector. It is known (https://t.me/z_arhiv/27633) about at least four major strongholds built at a greater height relative to the village itself, which gives the AFU an advantage in both visual observation capabilities and the ability to adjust artillery and mortar fire.
However, it is not worth talking about the impregnability of this fortified area – during the battles for Vesele, the Russian troops overcame a similar defense line of the Ukrainian formations in just a few days.
▪️On the southern flank, the units of the Russian Armed Forces, relying on Serhiivka, carried out a series of attacks, as a result of which the settlement of Orlivka was liberated. In the neighboring Zhuravka, apparently, the fighting continues, with the southeastern outskirts of the village under the control of the Russian troops.
It is worth expecting in the near future the “pulling up” of the Russian troops’ left flank and the assault on the AFU positions in the area of Novozhelane. There are reports of the start of battles for Novohrodivka, where a large railway hub of the AFU is located,

Chronicles of the special military operation
Russian forces struck targets of the AFU in several regions of the so-called Ukraine. In Dnipropetrovsk Region, the territory of a machine-building plant in Pavlodar was hit, and near Poltava, a hit was recorded on an ammunition depot in Terentievka.
In the North Ukrainian direction, Ukrainian formations are trying to expand their control zone in several districts of Kursk Region. Russian Armed Forces units respond with regular strikes on the areas of AFU personnel and equipment concentration, and also contain the enemy’s attacks.
In the Slobozhansky direction, Ukrainian formations attacked the positions of the Russian Armed Forces near the Kolotilovka border checkpoint and temporarily occupied the territory of the checkpoint. Later, Russian troops drove the enemy out of the occupied positions and regained control over the crossing.
In the Oleksandrivka-Kalynivka direction, Russian troops made significant advances on the approaches to Dzerzhynsk and almost completely liberated Kirovo.
