Freedom of Russia Legion claims full control of village in Kursk Oblast
Village of Tiotkino in Kursk Oblast of Russian Federation is under full control of the Freedom of Russia Legion, the Legion stated in Telegram on March 12.
In addition, according to them, the Russian occupiers are rapidly leaving the village, leaving behind positions and heavy equipment.
On March 12, three units in which Russian citizens are fighting — the Freedom of Russia Legion, the Russian Volunteer Corps, and the Siberian Battalion — crossed the border into Russia and announced the start of an operation to “liberate the Russian Federation from dictatorship.” According to preliminary data, it is taking place in the Belgorod and Kursk oblasts of the Russian Federation.
The Defence Ministry of Russian Federation recognized the rebels’ attacks on the Belgorod and Kursk oblasts, noting that they had “thwarted” their attempts to break through the border.
On March 12, drones attacked the Kursk, Belgorod, Tula, Voronezh, Nizhny Novgorod, Bryansk, Leningrad, Orel oblasts of the Russian Federation, as well as Moscow.
In the city of Orel, explosions were heard near an oil depot where a fire broke out, and a Lukoil oil depot in the Nizhny Novgorod region of the Russian Federation is also on fire.
After the UAV attack, the largest primary oil refining unit at LUKOIL’s Nizhny Novgorod refinery was shut down.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
