Abstract

Ukrainian forces have reported the largest surrender of Russian soldiers since the start of the war over two years ago. The Ukrainian Security Service captured 102 Russian servicemen in Russia's Kursk region, who were found in an underground complex with ample supplies. Ukraine claims to have expanded its cross-border incursion and now controls 1,150 square kilometers of Russian territory. President Zelenskiy praised Ukraine's troops and mentioned the possibility of a prisoner exchange with Russia. The fighting in eastern Ukraine continues, with Russian forces advancing towards the city of Pokrovsk. [Extracted from the article]
