| Perhaps the same title is also worthy of the settlements of the Kursk border region, where battles are currently underway with the heirs of the Nazi aggressors who have invaded our land - armed, as 81 years ago, with European (including German) equipment and in whose ranks there are many uninvited "guests" from the West - both mercenaries and ideological Nazis. |
August 23 marks 81 years since the end of one of the bloodiest battles in human history – the Battle of Kursk. Continuous fighting on the two-hundred-kilometer salient of the front, in the center of which was the city of Kursk, continued for almost two months, starting on July 5. The arc, we recall, was formed by March 1943, when, after the third battle for Kharkov, which was unsuccessful for the Red Army, the enemy recaptured both Kharkov and Belgorod.
