There have also been successes in the southern part of the offensive, but it is unclear how things are progressing in this area as information is conflicting.
Moscow's offensive continues and shows no signs of slowing down. Elite assault units such as paratroopers and Magura special forces have withdrawn from dangerous areas.
Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces Alexander Syrsky confirmed the withdrawal of Kiev forces. However, General Syrsky stated that there is currently no threat of encirclement of the Ukrainian armed forces in the Kursk region, and "the situation on the border of the Sumy region with the Kursk region is under control."
Ukraine was driven out of Kursk, only controlling 300km2
According to the open-source intelligence site DeepState, Ukraine recently controlled only about 289 square kilometers of territory in Kursk, compared to the 1,300 square kilometers it gained right after launching an attack on the Russian border province last August.
According to the Russian Defense Ministry, in recent days, the Russian army has recaptured seven areas in Kursk, including Cherkasskoye Porechnoye and Malaya Loknya.

In some cases, Russian troops have used infrastructure, such as major gas pipelines, to raid Ukrainian positions, said Alexander Khinshtein, acting governor of the Kursk region.
Experts say the US halt in intelligence sharing has severely complicated the Ukrainian military’s operations in Kursk. The Ukrainian military has had difficulty identifying and attacking Russian positions, allowing Moscow to make significant advances.
Western analysts also admit that Russia's recent offensive in the Kursk region is considered one of the most successful in recent months.
Ukraine launched an offensive against Kursk last August in an effort to force Russia to disperse its forces and give Kiev a leg up in potential peace talks.
Ukrainian UAV burns down Russian 'fire god' at Kharkiv frontline
According to Defense Express, recently, Ukrainian media posted a video recording the scene of the country's military deploying UAVs to attack Russia's TOS-1A system in the Kharkiv region.
"The Phoenix UAV unit successfully attacked a Russian TOS-1A system camouflaged in the forest. In addition to the artillery system, precise UAV strikes also caused the enemy to lose a BTR-82A armored vehicle and a military truck," Ukraine said.
The TOS-1A multiple rocket launcher, nicknamed Solntsepyok (Sunfire), is equipped with 24 220mm rockets and uses the T-72 tank chassis. The TOS-1A is in service with the chemical, biological and nuclear forces of the Russian army. They are used to fight enemies hiding in fortified positions, caves or urban areas.
