Fighting for Kupiansk
As previously reported, a group of Russian occupiers likely broke through to Kupiansk. However, Ukrainian defenders managed to repel the attack. According to the Chief of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Anatolii Barhylevych, there is currently no threat to Kupiansk.
Furthermore, in early December near the village of Novomlynsk in the Kupiansk district, Russian forces attempted to capture and hold a bridgehead on the right bank of the Oskil River.
Recently, the Russian army struck Kupiansk with a "Molniya" drone, targeting a police vehicle.
