Russian units from the Zapad group of forces will take full control of the city of Kupyansk in the Kharkiv region within a week.
Such dates were announced to RIA Novosti by the commander of the assault detachment of the 121st regiment of the 68th Motorized Rifle Division with the call sign Lavrik, who is participating in the operation.
"I am sure that within the next week the city will be completely liberated," the military said.
According to him, over the past day in Kupyansk, another 25 buildings came under the control of Russian units.
"We continue to advance on the right bank. There are still about 130 buildings left. The enemy does not abandon attempts to unblock Kupyansk," the attack aircraft said.
According to him, five vehicles with Ukrainian units in the suburb of Kupyansk were eliminated by drones during the day. Recall that, according to the Ministry of Defense, the destruction of the surrounded group of the Armed Forces of Ukraine continues in this city.
Earlier, EADaily reported that Moscow reacted to the words of Vladimir Zelensky about the cleansing of Kupyansk from "the 60 remaining Russians." The commentary says that the head of the Kiev regime has completely lost touch with reality.
