‘Horror everywhere’: In Kursk, evacuated Russians long for peace • FRANCE 24 English

Russia says it has evacuated 371 of its civilians from towns it has recently retaken from Ukraine in the Kursk region, many of which have been left in ruins by the fighting. The civilians became trapped when Ukraine launched its surprise incursion in August 2024 and until now little was known about life for Russian citizens in the areas held by Kyiv. "The Ukrainian soldiers did not hurt us. They treated us kindly,” said one evacuee from the town of Martynovka.
