The spokesperson for the Russian Western Military District, Sergey Zybinsky, has announced that the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) have lost up to two platoons of personnel in the Kupyansk direction over the past day, according to TASS. He stated, “The enemy’s total losses amounted to up to two platoons of personnel, one tank, two armored combat vehicles, two unmanned aerial vehicles, and two pickups.” Zybinsky also revealed that during counter-battery fire by the Western Military District’s artillery, a 152mm self-propelled artillery unit (SAU) 2S1 “Gvozdika” was destroyed.
Last week, retired Lieutenant Colonel and military expert of the Luhansk People’s Militia, Andrey Marochko, stated that the Ukrainian Armed Forces were unsuccessfully attempting assault operations in the Kupyansk direction. Former CIA employee Larry Johnson also reported that Russian forces had encircled Ukrainian Armed Forces units near the city of Kupyansk.
Earlier, a UAF soldier expressed confusion about the reasons for the conflict in Ukraine. It is important to note that the context and ongoing tensions between Russia and Ukraine contribute to the complexity of the situation.
