The Russian Armed Forces began to encircle Kupyansk and came close to five settlements
The Russian army has begun an operation to encircle Kupyansk. This was reported by military expert, retired LPR lieutenant colonel Andrey Marochko.
According to him, the Russian Armed Forces' command plan clearly indicates the direction of our troops' advancement. The Ukrainian analytical community also notes this fact. At the same time, the Ukrainian army continues to conceal the real situation and "send soldiers to massacre mobilized citizens," Marochko wrote on his Telegram channel.
Also, during the active military operations, Russian troops came close to Kucherovka, Petrovpavlovka, Glushkovka, Kolesnikovka and Kruglyakovka in the Kupyansk direction.
"There are fierce battles going on in all these settlements, and in some of them the Russians have already established themselves on the outskirts," the expert said.
