"We are expanding the area of active operations. The Commander-in-Chief reported that our forces control 74 communities in the Kursk region. I thank every soldier, every commander who ensures this. Once again, I thank all our guys who are replenishing the 'exchange fund' – this is very important for our state. Hundreds of Russian servicemen have already surrendered, and all of them are being treated humanely – they did not experience such treatment even in their own Russian army," Zelensky said.
