What Ukraine reports

automatic summary Former Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi told the BBC that his disputes with then Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov concerned the allocation of the defence budget: the minister, he said, favoured certain types of drones, "ignoring the needs of the army". Syrskyi called the Kursk operation a successful manoeuvre and a necessity.

Automatic summary, may contain errors. Short summaries are written by a language model with no human review; titles, summaries and the “Where the versions diverge” block in English are an automatic translation of the Russian originals. Quotes are verbatim (checked by code), in their original language, with a link. The “Where the versions diverge” block only records differences in wording and figures and does not say who is right. Publication times are shown in Europe/Berlin time. Report an error in this card
