The area under Ukrainian control spans 480 square kilometers with a penetration depth of 12 kilometers and a frontline width of 40 kilometers. This situation has led to significant disruption, with regional authorities uncertain about the fate of approximately 2,000 residents in these settlements. The incursion has prompted a sixth of the region's population to flee. During a meeting, President Putin interrupted Smirnov, instructing him not to mention specific numbers.
