Russian Ambassador to Washington Anatoly Antonov said that Russian leader Vladimir Putin had made a decision on how to respond to the invasion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) into the Kursk region, APA reports citing Lenta.ru.

"I tell you sincerely that the president has made a decision. I am firmly convinced that everyone will be severely punished for what happened in the Kursk region," he noted.

Antonov promised to destroy the military who invaded Russian territory. "No one has any doubt that they will be destroyed, not pushed back, but destroyed," he emphasized.

In the Kursk region, battles with the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been going on for more than two weeks, since August 6. A counter-terrorist operation regime has been introduced in the region, as well as in the Belgorod and Bryansk regions.

Anatoly Antonov spoke about the invasion of the Ukrainian Armed Forces into the territory of the Kursk region and assessed the role of the United States in what is happening. He stated that the American authorities knew about Kiev's plans to attack Russian territory.

"I am firmly convinced that nothing is done in Kyiv without the go-ahead from Washington... The Americans knew, know, and nothing happens without their knowledge," he underlined.

The diplomat also stated that the US could stop the Ukrainian Armed Forces' advance in the Kursk region "with a snap of the fingers". In his opinion, such an operation is impossible without the White House's knowledge.
