Ukraine's Kupiansk Triumph: Full Control Amidst Russian Tensions
Ukrainian forces have regained complete control over the northeastern city of Kupiansk, halting Russian advances. Despite Russian claims of gaining ground, Ukraine's military denies their presence. Kupiansk, previously seized by Russia in 2022, was reclaimed by a swift Ukrainian offensive. The recent rise in Russian activity has escalated tensions.
In a significant development, Ukraine's military announced full control over the northeastern city of Kupiansk, successfully halting Russian advances towards the strategic railway hub.
This comes after initial claims by a Russian-appointed official that Moscow's forces were establishing a foothold on the city's outskirts, over two years after the initial invasion in 2022.
The Ukrainian military's General Staff refuted these claims, clarifying that reports of Russian troops in Kupiansk are unfounded. Reuters noted the impossibility of independently verifying these battlefield accounts.
