Prehistory:
- On the night of December 25, the Defense Forces of Ukraine struck the command post of the 810th separate marine brigade of the Russian Armed Forces in the village of Lhiv, Kursk Oblast.
- According to detailed information, the building where the command post of 810 OBrMP was located was partially destroyed. As a result of the strike, the deputy commander of the brigade and 17 other servicemen of the Russian Armed Forces, most of whom are staff officers, were probably killed.
- On December 6, the head of the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin, dismissed the governor of the Kursk region, Oleksiy Smirnov, and appointed acting head of the region of State Duma deputy Oleksandr Khinshtein. This is the second change of the leadership of the region in a year, the cause of which was the “chaos” after the attack of the Armed Forces and the failed defense.
