Russian Assault On Kupyansk Began

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation launched surprise assault on the city of Kupyansk on the northern  Donbass frontlines. As a result of successful offensive operations, Russian forces broke through Ukrainian defense and gained a foothold in the city.

According to both Russian and Ukrainian military sources, the first Russian attack was launched on the evening of November 13th. Two Russian assault groups on armored vehicles moved from their military positions in the area of Liman Pervy toward Kupyansk. According to the Ukrainian military, the first Russian assault group included 2 MT-LB armored vehicles, an infantry fighting vehicle and a tank. Ukrainian soldiers could not reveal the number of vehicles in the second assault group because it entered the battle late in the evening. As a result of the surprise assault, Russian tank and at least one of the MT-LB armored vehicles from the first group broke through Ukrainian defense, entered the city and passed along Svatovska street. On Nekrasova street it came under Ukrainian fire but it was too late because about 15 Russian stormtroopers already attacked Ukrainian positions in the city and captured Ukrainian strongholds in the buildings. Their positions were soon reinforced by other soldiers.

Ukrainian media shared the footage of the battles on the city outskirts:

 

 

After the first day of urban battles, Russian stormtroopers supported by armored vehicles gained a bridgehead in the city. The first line of Ukrainian defense was destroyed and the Ukrainian command is forced to urgently send reinforcement to stop Russian advance in the city, including additional forces from the villages nearby that were thrawn into the battle for Kupyansk.

The Ukrainian military were surprised by unexpected Russian assault and are forced to repel the attacks by cannon fodder. Heavy battles are ongoing on the outskirts.

According to Russian reports from the battlefield, the reserve units thrown into battles in Kupyansk are not trained and mainly include soldiers taken from hospitals and men captured on the streets. As a result, Ukrainian forces are suffering heavy losses threatened by the upcoming reinforcement of the Russian group in the city.

If Russian forces manage to save control of the captured positions and expand their bridgehead in the city, the Ukrainian garrison deployed on the left bank of the Oskol River will face heavy supply problems, since earlier the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation took control of the village of Kolesnikovka and cut Ukrainian supply road to Borovaya.

it is insulting to call russians nazi. russian civilians were killed by nazis more than jews. you should call them american, because usa is known to attack sovereign countries for political reasons. vietnam, iraq, libya to mention a few. and usa missiles killed 20.000 babies in palestine. that is about 1000 times more babies than russia has killed. and the missiles keep flowing even though un search group said, they are used for genocide.

“americans” attack native people by the same reason as the nazis did. “americans” erased 200 peoples from earth in north america. the method are the same as in “nine eleven”, they do something barbaric and call other barbarians. its the same as the germans and khazars do in palestine. “us” are the source to nazi germany, adolf hitler rothschild was financed by family bush. when it had payed of, they occupied europe.

Hello

we believe you… but did you forget to add that for every wounded soldier, they’re sending a family member to the front to make up for his absence? if there are kids younger than 14, two need to go.

no fence painters here, tommy boy. go back to plying your trade in old folks homes.

i am fairly critical of russian forces ability to keep kupiansk breach from falling. the breach is very narrow and ukraine will throw at them all what they have. and like you said, it was one vehicle, 15 soldiers.
