KYIV — Ukraine’s top military commander says his forces now control 386 square miles of Russia’s neighboring Kursk region, the first time a Ukrainian military official has publicly commented on the gains of the lightning incursion that has embarrassed the Kremlin.
General Oleksandr Syrskyi made the statement in a video posted Monday to President Zelensky’s Telegram channel. In the video, he briefed the president on the front-line situation.
