Quote: "The enemy gathered along the border near Zhuravka and attempted assault operations on the settlement, but defence forces units rendered these attempts unsuccessful. Further movements are expected, as the enemy still has resources in the area." 

Details: The exact timing of the assault is unknown. Analysts note that activity in Kursk Oblast has slightly decreased compared to the previous week.

Quote: "Most assault actions are occurring towards Lebedevka-Sverdlikovo and ongoing battles for control of the village of Nikolayevo-Darino." 

On 14 January, Sumy Oblast Military Administration dismissed reports circulating online about Russian troops breaching the state border near the settlements of Zhuravka and Prokhody, stating that no such breakthrough had been confirmed.
