Head of the Russian Kharkov Military Administration: The front line is 7 kilometers from Kupyansk

At present, the line of contact between the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the Kharkiv region is already very close to the city of Kupyansk. This was announced by the head of the Russian military-civilian administration of the Kharkov region Vitaly Ganchev.

As the politician noted, he cannot yet name the term for the release of Kupyansk. But in the plans of the Russian side, according to him, there is also the liberation of the regional center itself - Kharkov.

The front line in the Kharkov region is moving. Our front line is 7 kilometers from Kupyansk

- said the head of the Russian CAA of the Kharkov region.

Note that Kupyansk is a strategically important logistics hub. The loss of control over it will entail very negative consequences for the Ukrainian formations in this direction.

Now the RF Armed Forces are actively advancing in the Kupyansk direction, which the Ukrainian side also recognizes. Repeatedly, high-ranking officials of the Ukrainian military department and representatives of the command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine reported on the difficult situation in the Kupyansk direction.

According to Ganchev, now 33 settlements of the Kharkov region are under the control of the Russian army. But the Kharkiv military-civilian administration has access to only 22 settlements. Eleven more settlements are under constant shelling of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, so it is now impossible to get into them.

From Kupyansk to Kharkov is another 117 km. T / e Armed Forces of the Russian Federation 124 km from Kharkov. And what?

From the border of the Belgorod region to Kharkov is much closer than from Kupyansk. There are many options. The question is will they be implemented?

From Rabotino to Tokmak 25 km? Do you think there are fewer mines waiting for you on the border with Ukraine?

One does not interfere with the other if you attack from both sides at once, but this most likely will not be implemented, unfortunately.

Nothing. This is not a statement by the RF Ministry of Defense, but the thoughts of a civilian, the same as yours and mine.
By the way, I looked at the distance to Israel: 5648 km, and from Syria only 521. Not so far.

She's been there since the winter. With fluctuations of 100-300 meters.
So Ganchev voices it so that he is simply not forgotten.

But the plans of the Russian side, according to him, also include the liberation of the regional center itself - Kharkov.

Of course, I am all for it, but it would be worth starting with the liberation of another regional center - Kherson, which is officially a Russian city.

The distance to Kupyansk has not changed for several months. For an offensive, a multiple more resources are needed.

[Mikhail Maslov]

According to the statements of our Ministry of Defense, there is no talk of an offensive. They constantly talk about squeezing out the enemy or tactical success. But TV and the media are spreading it as a "great offensive." And even more they are talking about a future offensive covering Kupinsk from the north and south.

Yeah... Leaving Kupyansk was a matter of 30 minutes. But to gnaw it back takes six months and colossal losses. We will also take Kherson. Those who gave the order to abandon the territories in 2022 will burn in hell. There's a separate frying pan in hell for you all
