"To eliminate the consequences of enemy forces coming into the region, I took the decision to introduce a state of emergency in the Kursk region from 7 August," said Kursk's acting Governor Alexei Smirnov.
Russia's Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov told President Vladimir Putin that 'a unit of Ukraine's armed forces numbering up to 1,000 people went on the offensive' in the Kursk region.
Putin said Ukraine was carrying out a 'large-scale provocation' in the region, from which several thousand people have reportedly been evacuated.
