What do we know? about the situation in Kup'yanska
The General Staff yesterday announced the occupiers’ attempt to break through the Ukrainian defense at Kupyansky directly. The enemy's assault groups attacked ZSU positions in several areas. As part of the military campaign, the Russian Federation received approximately 15 pieces of equipment: tanks, armored combat vehicles and the UR-77 missile launcher.
In addition, some of the Russian soldiers were re-dressed in the form of the Armored Forces of Ukraine, so violates the laws and rules of war and military evil.
Meanwhile, the General Staff, having noted that the Ukrainian fighters had succeeded in defeating the enemy, destroyed all their armored vehicles and eliminated most of the living force.
However, the later Ukrainian project DeepState stated that the Russian firemen were able to go as far as Kup'yansk. Movlyav, yesterday two colonies of military equipment hung out from the area of Liman Pershy in Kup'yansk to the highway on Svatovo.

“Одна МТ-ЛБ підбита у лісі. Іншій МТ-ЛБ вдалося безперешкодно доїхати в район вулиці Сватівська, де її уразили. З неї висипалося півтора десятки окупантів, які розбіглися по будинкам”, – повідомили аналітики.
Already today, the head of the Kup'yansk military administration, Andriy Besedin, revealed the publication “Dumka” that the Russian paratroopers who penetrated to Kup'yansk, . According to him, the situation in the city is controlled and the enemy, who broke through to the left bank part of Kup'yanska, did not gain a foothold.
I submit a statement to the Center for the Prevention of Disinformation at the RNBO Andriy Kovalenko. He noted that the information about the strengthening of the gate at Kup'yansky does not indicate effectiveness.
“There was a clear test of the gate, but the Russians were lost. The situation was controlled by the forces at the beginning defense,” adding Kovalenko.
The General Staff also provides its own simple information about the presence of Russian troops near Kup’yansku.
“Yesterday, Ukrainian soldiers closed the gate to Kup’yansk, lost all their armored vehicles and liquidated a significant part of their manpower. Kup’yansk is under the control of the Ukrainian Defense Forces,” the statement reads.
As you can see from the General Staff, the number of attacks on Kupyansky has actually increased. In any case, you can take into account that this is a clear activation of the enemy on this front. And it wasn’t until recently that the emergency situation at this point became known.
So, even in the middle of the year, the military evacuation of communities from Kupyanska and three other communities “due to the collapse of the military situation” was deafened. For the rest of this fall, the occupiers were able to reach a place closer to the population; the point itself is under constant shelling.
There is a threat of wasting space
Western expert Pavlo Narozhny notes that Kupyansko-Limansky has immediately become different in activity after Pokrovsko-Kurakhivsky. And the activation of the enemy is quite serious.
“Why did this happen? There are two points here. The first is the Russians’ attempt to join the defencists’ ranks, as they are pushing away the Kharkiv region. The other is to cut the road going to Slovyansk. Over there, along the two lines of the production front,” Narozhny explained in the commentary RBC-Ukraine.
However, in my opinion, in Kup'yanska there is no such situation for which Russian troops could cross the Oskil River, which divides the place into two parts.
“They reached Oskol in one place, there is a threat of splitting the Ukrainian grouping into two parts. But storming the river is an extremely important operation. “Zrobiti”, – it seems Narozhny.
We also have respect for the fact that in most of the tests of Russian fire pits, if you install pontoon bridges, do not bring them to success, because the cost will be lost.
“There is no threat (waste of space – ed.). The fact that there are assaults there does not mean that they can break through and bury the place. The fluidity of the enemy is quite sufficient on all the plots of the front,” – Narozhny emphasizes.
He guessed that any kind of Swedish spills on the battlefield have not been avoided for a long time. Ostannіy – when the Defense Forces of Ukraine fell on the Russian front and this was already in 2022.
“That’s why I don’t raise any threat that the enemy will quickly break into Kup’yanska. The situation there is definitely not simple, but I don’t threaten the fallen place now. Because, for example, Chasiv Yar is storming the canal, which is dry and this stinking canal cannot be crossed.

How important is Kup'yansk
Before the Great War, the population of Kup'yansk consisted of tens of thousands of people. The place is the other largest tourist hub in the Kharkov region after Kharkov, which is located 40 km beyond the border with Russia.
Kup'yansk is a junction of highways and highways (a number of highways and five highways pass through it). On the eve of a large-scale invasion, the Russian Federation began to invade the place. Meanwhile, in the spring of 2022, the forces of Ukraine liberated the population of the point from the occupiers during the hour of Slobozhansky’s counterattack and pushed the enemy far beyond the Oskil River.
This effort is of small significance, even though 'Yansk plays a key role in the military Postachanni. Zokrema, Russian zharbniks transferred their special warehouse and goods from the Belgorod region through the place for the consolidation that was underway near Izyum.
During the hour of preparing the material, the vikory was compiled: Gensht’s information used ZSU, data from DeepState, statement from the head of Kup' Yansky MBA Andriy Besedina and the Kerivnik to the Center for Anti-Disinformation at the RNBO Andriy Kovalenko, as well as an exclusive commentary from the military expert Pavel Narozhny.
