Kyiv’s forces are still advancing—and taking prisoners—in Russia’s western Kursk region despite Russian counterattacks, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Aug. 14.
“We continue to advance further in the Kursk region,” Zelenskyy wrote on Telegram on Aug. 14, “from one to two km in various areas since the start of the day. And more than 100 Russian prisoners of war in the same period.”
