The situation in the Lyman direction

Previously, we discussed how the cold weather would impact the Ukrainian Armed Forces' counteroffensive. According to the spokesperson of the Eastern Military Group, Illia Yevlash, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been making preparations for this.

Yevlash also stated during a televised marathon that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have recognized the Lyman-Kupiansk direction as the most challenging front. The situation there is currently more difficult than in the Bakhmut direction.
