The Russian army defeated the Ukrainian units in the direction of Kupyansk. According to Yevgeny Polovodov, an officer of the press center of the Zapad group, the Solntsepek heavy flamethrower system was used in the area of ​​the Grinyakovka and Dvurechnoye settlements.
According to Yevgeny Polovodov, four sabotage and reconnaissance groups of the Armed Forces of Ukraine were destroyed by crews of 152 mm Msta-B howitzers on the defense line of the Russian army near the settlements of Masyutovka and Novoselovskoye.
In addition, motorized rifle units disrupted two rotations of Ukrainian vanguard militants in the region of the Dvurechnoye and Tenkovka settlements.
– said the officer of the press center.
According to Yevgeny Polovodov, the Russian army managed to open two more enemy sabotage groups in the Berestovoye and Novoselovsky regions.
Note that there are no active hostilities in the direction of Kupyansk now. Both sides concentrated on conducting counter-battery combat. The enemy is forced to withdraw part of the troops to strengthen the defense of Artemovsk (Bakhmut) and Avdiivka. However, the situation could erupt at any time.
Despite a slight lull, Ukrainian units regularly attempt to send sabotage groups to the rear of Russian units. Thus, the command of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in this area is trying to find weaknesses in the defense of Russian troops.
