Ukrainian soldiers surrender in Kursk; Kiev fires ATACMS at Russian airport... are notable news about the Russia-Ukraine war on the morning of November 28.
The Russia-Ukraine war on the morning of November 28 witnessed many unexpected developments on the battlefield.
Series of Ukrainian soldiers in Kursk surrender, President Zelensky orders urgent
According to Sina, information from the police force of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic, the defense line of the Ukrainian army in the direction of Kurakhove collapsed. The 33rd Brigade of the Ukrainian army retreated in chaos, with 3 soldiers falling behind and then being surrounded by soldiers of the 20th Division, 8th Guards Corps of Russia.
Video released by the website shows the Russian military using drones to drop leaflets calling for surrender on Ukrainian military positions and broadcast a call for surrender. After the Ukrainian soldiers laid down their weapons, the Russian military continued to use drones to drop a radio, guiding them to move through a safe route to the Russian military position.

A Russian commando commander codenamed “Borz” recently said that when Ukrainian soldiers in the Kurakhove direction were in a desperate situation and had no way out, Russian soldiers would ask them to lay down their weapons and surrender, and in most cases they accepted. For example, on November 15, a group of Ukrainian soldiers laid down their weapons after receiving a call to surrender over the robot’s radio system.
After Donald Trump, who promised to end the Russia-Ukraine conflict, won the US presidential election, both Russia and Ukraine have increased the intensity of their attacks in order to gain an advantage in the upcoming peace talks. However, with the advantage in manpower and equipment, Russia is launching more fierce attacks on the front line.
According to Le Parisien (France), the Russian army continues to advance in the eastern region of Ukraine, capturing or besieging new residential areas every day. Currently, they have advanced close to the strategic city of Pokrovsk. It is known that this city is located northwest of Donetsk, has a population of more than 60,000 people and is an important strategic point on the route leading to Dnipro, Kramatorsk and Sloviansk.
Under the pressure of the Russian army's strong offensive, the Ukrainian army suffered one defeat after another. Most importantly, many officers and soldiers felt pessimistic about their future prospects, their morale was low and they lacked the will to fight. The Kiev government recognized this negative sign.
In his speech at a recent international conference on food security, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky specifically emphasized the importance of soldier morale and asked generals to volunteer and go into the trenches to fight alongside ordinary soldiers.
This is very important. An officer must be present and see his men. In my opinion, a general who has never been in the trenches cannot be called a general, no matter how much experience he has. A general must be present in the trenches - that is war.
Russia fired 200 missiles into Ukraine overnight
Russia launched a combined attack on Ukraine with 4 ballistic missiles and 188 drones of various types on the night of November 25 and early morning of November 26.
The Ukrainian Air Force said that on the night of November 25 and morning of November 26, Russia launched 4 Iskander-M missiles from Voronezh, Kursk and 188 drones of various types from the direction of Oryol, Bryansk, Kursk and Primorsk-Akhtarsk.

Previously, Ukrainian media reported that since the evening of November 25, the Russian military has deployed many waves of drones across Ukrainian territory.
In Kiev in particular, air raid sirens were heard continuously, air defense systems were activated and a series of explosions were heard several times during the night.
Ukraine's ATACMS missile hits Russian military airport
According to The Drive, Ukrainian media posted videos recording the moment the ATACMS long-range missile hit a military airport in Russia's Kursk region.
" In the early morning of November 25, intelligence units coordinated with the Ukrainian armed forces to attack important enemy targets in the Bryansk, Kaluzk and Kursk regions ," the Ukrainian side said.
Astra media later cited Russian military sources as saying that the airport that was attacked was located at the Khalino air base, which houses Russia's Su-25 aircraft and is also the closest military base to the Kursk frontline.
" Ukraine launched about 8 ATACMS missiles and 12 UAVs into the Kursk region. Russian air defense forces intercepted most of the targets, but 1 missile hit the Khalino base. Specific damage is being calculated ," Astra's source said.
This is the first time Ukraine has publicly used ATACMS missiles to attack targets inside Russian territory, after the US eased restrictions on this type of weapon with Kiev.
