Lozova occupation claims: Ukraine's Forces respond to DeepState's reports on Russian advances
The Khortytsia Operational-Strategic Group of Troops has no information regarding the enemy's occupation of Lozova in the Kupiansk direction, states a spokesperson of the Khortytsia Operational-Strategic Group of Troops, Viktor Trehubov, during a national telethon live broadcast.
"Specifically regarding Lozova, it’s hard for me to say where the information about its capture comes from. Reports from the area are contradictory. As of now, there isn’t even any information about serious clashes there," he stated.
On the night of January 7, the OSINT project DeepState reported that Russian forces had occupied the settlements of Lozova and Shevchenko. Additionally, the enemy allegedly advanced in Toretsk.
