The day before, the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Oleksandr Syrskyi said that the Russians are concentrating their offensive on the Kurakhiv, Pokrovsky, Kupyansk and Kharkiv directions.
The situation in the Kupyansk region is difficult — there the enemy is trying to break through the defenses of the troops from two directions. Active Russian assaults are going on in Vovchansk and on the approaches to Chasovoy Yar. In the Kharkiv Region, the enemy is concentrating its main efforts and is trying to advance in the direction of Hlyboke — Lypka, but is not succeeding.
Syrsky noted that the situation is difficult, but the Ukrainian troops have a chance to change it to their advantage.
