"A counter-sabotage operation is being carried out in the city, and search and strike operations are being carried out around the city. Since the beginning of the operation, in two weeks, enemy losses amounted to 395 people, of which 288 were irreversible. On the approaches to Kupyansk, in the areas of the settlements of Radkivka and Holubivka, our soldiers neutralized a total of 265 Russians.
In the area of the city itself - another 128. In addition, enemy personnel are captured, replenishing the exchange fund and providing testimonies that will be used against the occupiers," the General Staff reports.

Ukrainian units are taking the necessary measures to strengthen the stability of the defense and eliminate the enemy.
