Russian offensive operations to liberate Kursk region failed; Russian forces caught on the wrong side of the Seym River are struggling for supplies with unconfirmed reports of hundreds of paratroopers isolated in Glushkovo.

Ukraine's operation in the Kursk region is ongoing. Enemy aircraft continue to raze their villages and cities to the ground. Over the past day, Russian planes carried out 26 airstrikes using 33 glide bombs against their own territory
