In Kupyansk direction, the offensive pace of the Russians has abated, they conduct rotations and recovery to resume assault operations.

"Kupyansk direction. Regarding offensive operations: the enemy's pace has decreased slightly. The reason is that the enemy suffered quite serious losses in manpower, weapons and equipment. Now they conduct rotations and replenishment. And this indicates that they intend to resume assault operations. Our positions there are quite strong. Yes, indeed, when such active military operations began a month ago, the grey zone, the zone of shelling, expanded. However, no positions were lost there," Oleh Syniehubov, Head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, told a briefing, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

As noted, the number of airstrikes in this direction increased.

"At the beginning [of active assault operations], the enemy launched airstrikes almost every day, but on the positions of our military, that is, to break through the defense lines, our fortifications. They had no success. And indeed, over the past week, the enemy concentrated their airstrikes – in Vovchansk direction as well – on the local population, private houses," Syniehubov said.

He noted that Lyman direction, particularly Borova community of Izium district, remained an important and difficult area. The front-line villages suffer constant strikes there.
