The Ukrainian Armed Forces are in control of the situation in Kupyansk – General Staff
The situation in the city of Kupyansk and its environs is under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. A counter-sabotage operation is underway in the city.
The General Staff reported this.
It is noted that the enemy continues to attempt to accumulate on the northern outskirts of the city of Kupyansk.
“The exit from the pipeline, which the enemy used to move personnel to Kupyansk, is under the control of Ukrainian defenders. The pipeline does not lead directly to the city,” the General Staff explained.
It was also noted that there are several pipelines in the Kupyansk area. Three of the four lines have already been damaged and flooded, the exit from the fourth is under the control of the defense forces. A counter-sabotage operation is being conducted in the city, and search and strike operations are being conducted around the city.
“Since the beginning of the operation, in two weeks, the enemy’s losses amounted to 395 people, of which 288 were irretrievable. On the approaches to Kupyansk, in the areas of the settlements Radkovka and Golubovka, our soldiers neutralized a total of 265 Russians. In the area of the city itself – another 128,” the Prosecutor General’s Office added.
In addition, enemy personnel are captured, replenishing the exchange fund and testifying that they will be used against the occupiers.
“The defensive operation in the Kupyansk direction continues. Our units are taking the necessary measures to strengthen the stability of the defense and eliminate the enemy,” the General Staff summarized.
Let us recall that earlier DeepState analysts reported that the Russians had developed a logistics route through a gas pipeline, with the help of which they would overcome Oskol and enter Kupyansk .
