CCD denied “Russian offensive” from Kursk region: Putin's statement is lie

Ukrinform
The Russian subversive group that attempted to enter the territory of Ukraine from the Kursk region has been destroyed, and Russian dictator Vladimir Putin's information about a large-scale Russian offensive is a lie.

According to Ukrinform, the head of the Center for Countering Disinformation (CCD) at the National Security and Defense Council, Andriy Kovalenko, said this in a Telegram message.

“Regarding the information on Kursk region that appeared on social networks. There was an attempt by a Russian subversive group to enter the territory of Ukraine. The subversive group was destroyed. There is no group of Russian troops capable of carrying out a large-scale offensive on the territory of Ukraine. Attempts by Russian subversive reconnaissance groups are frequent, but the DRG is destroyed by the Defense Forces. Putin's information about a large-scale Russian offensive is a lie,” Kovalenko said.
