Not all personnel, which the enemy concentrated in the Kupyansk direction, participates in hostilities. About a third of all fighters are concentrated on the first line of defense, told the head of the press service of the Eastern Grouping of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces Ilya Yevlash.

In early February, Forbes stated that the armed forces of the Russian Federation were drawn to Kupyansk 500 tanks, up to 600 units of combat vehicles, hundreds of howitzers and 40 thousand soldiers for the offensive. The head of the press service of the Eastern Grouping of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces Ilya Yevlash said that this resource has been stored for a long time in this direction. He reported this during a telecommunication on February 19.

"In fact, this resource has been stored there for a long time. I was still talking about this number in the early fall of 2023. The total number in the Limano-Kupyansky direction at that time was 110,000 occupiers," Ilya Yevlash said. He noted that in the Kupyansk direction the enemy concentrated 42 thousand soldiers, but not all of them are involved in hostilities. As it is about service units, boys, bonds, chefs, logists, engineers.

"If you say roughly so, about a third is the very combat number that participates in the first line of defense," he explained. The invaders also concentrated different types of weapons in the direction, namely 500 tanks, more than 650 combat armored vehicles, 430 artillery systems and more than 150 RSSUs. However, not all weapons of the enemy are in good condition.

According to him, this number cannot be underestimated despite the fact that the Armed Forces use weapons, which as possible strongly as possible allows the enemy of fire damage. As a result, the proper use, use of troops, tactics, technologies and innovations helps to restrain the "great enemy armad" over a long period of time.
