Russian troops continue active offensive operations in the Kupyansk sector, striking several settlements simultaneously, according to military correspondent Yuri Kotenok.

He reported that Ukrainian forces are facing severe logistical difficulties on the left bank of the Oskol River, struggling to deliver ammunition and supplies. Kotenok said Russian units have surrounded Ukrainian troops near Kurilovka and breached defensive lines northeast of Petropavlovka.

At the same time, Ukrainian forces are attempting counterattacks north of Kupyansk, in the areas of Golubovka and Nechvolodovka, aiming to break through toward Moskovka.

Earlier reports indicated that Ukrainian troops in Kupyansk had been encircled, while Russian forces successfully repelled all attempts at counteroffensive actions by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
