Every day, active clashes erupt in the Kharkiv region. Battles feature tanks, airplanes, cannon fire, and other weapons. "Equipment is burning in large quantities, and there is nothing to say about the number of Russians killed and wounded.
And all these heavy battles are not for Kupiansk itself or even for the villages near it. Meat assaults can last for weeks just for a small piece of land," said the Ukrainian soldier in the Telegram group Gostri Kartuzy. The military added that the Russians are putting a lot of their lives and resources into getting 300 meters down and gaining a foothold.
