Fighting on the frontlines
Recently, the situation in the Kupiansk direction has worsened. The enemy is attempting to enter the city through underground tunnels. However, Ukrainian soldiers are destroying the adversary.
It is worth noting that Kupiansk was already under Russian occupation in 2022. Ukrainian defenders liberated the city during the Kharkiv operation in the fall of that year.
