During the Russo-Ukrainian War and Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Armed Forces of Ukraine captured and occupied parts of Russia's Kursk Oblast. It was the first time since World War II that Russian territory was occupied by a foreign military. Ukrainian forces captured several settlements, including the town of Sudzha. The occupation was an outcome of the Ukrainian incursion of the Kursk Oblast that began on 6 August 2024.

## History

[edit]

On 15 August 2024, Ukrainian military commander Oleksandr Syrskyi announced the establishment of a military administration in occupied parts of Kursk Oblast to be headed by major general Eduard Moskaliov, who would hold the title of military commandant.[1][2] He said that 82 settlements in the oblast were under Ukrainian control.[3] Ukraine said it was "not interested" in permanently annexing Russian territory.[4] On 19 August, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukrainian forces were in control over 92 settlements in Kursk Oblast and 1,250 square kilometers of Russian territory.[5] On 3 September, Zelenskyy said in an interview that Ukraine is planning to "indefinitely" hold Kursk Oblast's seized territories, in an attempt to force Putin to the negotiating table.[6]

## Activities

[edit]

Ukraine has stated that the purpose of the military administration is to provide humanitarian aid to civilians, maintain public service and to keep law and order in territories controlled by the Ukrainian armed forces.[7][8][9] Ukrainian authorities plan to allow international humanitarian organizations access the areas of Kursk Oblast that they control.[10]

Ukraine’s national postal service, Ukrposhta, is considering opening a branch in Sudzha if the safety of its staff can be guaranteed.[11][12]

On 16 August, Journalists from Italy's RAI network and Ukraine's Hromadske network visited the Sudzha area and interviewed local residents.[13][14][15] The following day, the Ukrainian military allowed CNN to travel, with supervision, into Sudzha. CNN reported that Ukraine was giving food to Russian citizens who remained in the city.[16] Some Russian civilians in the territory under Ukrainian occupation have complained that they have been abandoned by the Russian government.[17]

A curfew between the hours of 17:00 and 10:00 was introduced in the Sudzha district by the military commandant's office on 23 August 2024.[18]

On 3 September, The Guardian reported that soldiers returning from Sudzha claimed to have taken "trophies", such as Russian flags and posters seized from official buildings and T-shirts featuring Vladimir Putin taken from stalls at Sudzha market, and falsely told residents without power or access to information that Ukraine controlled Kursk.[19]
