[Global Times Special Correspondent in Russia Xiao Xinxin Global Times Special Correspondent Liu Yupeng] In a video speech on the evening of the 10th local time, Ukrainian President Zelensky admitted for the first time that the Ukrainian army was launching an attack on the Russian border area. He said that Ukraine is proving its ability to "restore justice" and ensure that necessary pressure is exerted on Russia. According to foreign media reports in the past two days, the Ukrainian army has mobilized far more troops than the initial media reports of about 1,000 people, but thousands or even tens of thousands. In the face of the Ukrainian offensive, Russia said on the 10th that it had evacuated tens of thousands of people from Kursk Oblast and launched "anti-terrorist operations" in three states. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zakharova said on social media on the 11th that the Russian army will soon respond strongly to the Ukrainian army attacking the Russian border area. The Russian Ministry of Defense reported on the same day that in the past day, the Ukrainian army lost 230 military personnel and 38 tanks and armored vehicles in the Kursk direction.

"I thank every unit of the defense force for ensuring this."

Zelensky also said that in the past week, the Russian army launched more than 30 missiles and dropped more than 800 guided air bombs at Ukraine. He called on allies to make a strong decision to lift restrictions on the Ukrainian army's use of Western weapons to carry out in-depth strikes in Russia.
