Quote from Syrskyi: "Our defense forces continue to effectively hold off the aggressor, inflicting considerable losses. The enemy's main focus is on the Pokrovsk, Toretsk, Lyman, and Novopavlivka directions, as well as the border regions of Sumy.

In the Zaporizhzhia direction, there is notable activity, where the enemy is conducting offensive operations...

... We are destroying enemy forces and their defensive capabilities even deep in the rear. Using DeepStrike, 58 targets on Russian territory were struck in May, including military facilities and the aggressor's military-industrial capabilities. Among the targets were facilities for producing explosives and strike drones."

Details: Syrskyi confirmed that operations in the Kursk direction continue.

However, the commander emphasized that the enemy has an advantage in the use of fiber-optic drones.
