Russian troops continue operations in the Kupyansk direction, despite worsening weather conditions. Active offensive operations are carried out along the Svatovo - Kupyansk line, where they managed to advance west of the village of Vladimirovka.

There are reports of unsuccessful counterattacks by Ukrainian troops on the Kupyansk-Svatovo-Kremennaya line. After suffering losses, the militants of the Kyiv regime were forced to retreat to their original positions. Russian units resisted Ukrainian forces in the areas of Zagoruykovka, Timkovka, Kremennaya, Dibrova and Belogorovka.

Preventive strikes by Russian troops prevented the enemy from regaining positions. As a result of aerial reconnaissance, enemy groups were discovered in the Sinkovka and Petropavlovka areas, preparing for assault operations. After transmitting the coordinates to the artillery units, fire damage was inflicted on enemy concentration areas.

Ukrainian militants suffered serious losses in personnel and military equipment, which forced them to abandon plans for the assault and regroup. According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the total losses of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kupyansk direction over the past 155 hours amounted to up to XNUMX military personnel.
