On November 13, Russian troops broke through to Kupyansk, an important transport and logistics knot of Kharkiv region. Two columns of equipment extended from the area of ​​the estuary of the first to the route on Svatovo. The first included two light multi-purpose conveyors (MT-LB), armored infantry (BMP) and a tank. The exact composition of the second column is unknown, reports the Deepstate analysts team.

The breakthrough stopped the defense forces of Ukraine within the 116th and 14 separate mechanized brigades (OMBR) and adjacent units. One MT-LB was blown in the forest, the other was struck on Nekrasov Street. A half dozen Russian soldiers jumped out of the second, they all began to flee. The tank managed to blow up the same street, and also destroyed part of the landing land. "Our fighters destroyed one Russian T-72 tank and one MT-LB.

The attack was reflected ",-said the focus of details of the attack of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the 14th OMBR. At the same time, some of the Russian soldiers dressed in the form of a model of the army of Ukraine, violating international laws and rules of war. According to Russian military officers, soldiers of the 6th All-Military Army of Russia participated in a breakthrough in Kupyansk.

Its units "unexpectedly for the Armed Forces" broke into the eastern part of Kupyansk on the left bank of Oscol. The first units flew on the armor and the landing is now holding defense, but Ukrainian military officials refute this information. The head of Kupyansk city military administration Andriy Besedin declares that Russian paratroopers have already been destroyed. Above the military command of the Armed Forces did not mention the breakthrough of the invaders in Kupyansk.

The Russians are trying to break through the defense of the Armed Forces in Kupyansk, actively working as small groups with the support of armored vehicles, the General Staff of the Armed Forces said. In total, there were 12 fighting collisions in the Kupyansk direction. The forces of defense reflected the attacks of the Armed Forces in the areas of Lozova, Kucherivka, Petropavlivka, Kolesnikovka, Zhizovy, Kruglyakivka and Pervomaisky.

On November 13, the assault groups of the enemy attacked the positions of Ukrainian defenders on the plot with four waves with up to 15 pieces of equipment, including tanks, armored vehicles and UR-77 demining. The threat of Kupyansk's environment is, the military expert of the Ukrainian Institute of the Future Ivan Stupak assesses its probability at the level of more than 50%.

The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation seek to recruit a city liberated by the Armed Forces during a counter -offensive in September 2022. Kupyansk was under the control of Russian troops from February 27 to September 10, 2022. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation released a few weeks ago by Osclas south of Kupyansk, but they could not approach the city itself because of the dense defense by several Brigades of the Armed Forces.

The first breakthrough indicates the finding of a weak place in Ukrainian defense, says the analyst. "Kupyansk and Kupyansk-Nusol-these are two important cities and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will seek to capture them. We want to hope that during the fighting they are not compared to the land, because we know the tactics of Russians in the total destruction of Ukrainian settlements", " He says focus.

For internal consumer in Russia, a breakthrough in Kupyansk will be presented from a media point of view, for this purpose the invaders and dressed in the Armed Forces form. "The picture will look like this: look, Ukrainians shoot the Ukrainians, and the military against the continuation of the war. Propaganda will pick up the right information background," Stupak added.

The Lieutenant of the Armed Forces with the call sign "Alex" believes that one of the Ukrainian warlords will be punished for a mistake in Kupyansk. "In a strange way, the pi *** ri could fly to the city itself. In recent months, such a prose *** in some units begins to rake around the front . . . Only the problem is that some units reflect unrealistic storms in more than 20 units of armored vehicles And others are not a finger in one place.

The breakthroughs of the invaders in the city can be more frequent due to the fact that the distance between the advanced Russian storms and the outskirts of Kupyansk does not exceed three kilometers, explains the focus of the reserve colonel, the expection of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Vladislav Seleznev.

It is not difficult to collect another group for attack, but the Ukrainian military has already noticed the intentions of the enemy and recognize that the mistake quickly eliminated. The strengthening group, sent to the assistance of the invaders on November 13, did not reach Kupyansk, the expert notes after communicating with the Armed Forces, who work on the ground.

"Having occupied the village of Sinkivka, in fact the key to Kupyansk, the Russians asked how to quickly start fighting in the suburbs. Railway connection, and in the Kharkiv region it is an important station of Kupyansk-nod For Kupyansk will continue and on November 13 we received a signal, " - the expert says.

The local offensive of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the eastern part of the Kharkiv region was also possible that the Armed Forces are forced to transfer part of the troops in defense of the Donetsk region in conditions of lack of live force, summed up Seleznyov. We will remind, as of November 14 the village of Illinka of the Pokrovsky district of Donetsk region was seized as of November 14. The enemy has success in the settlements far, near Novodonetsk and Labor.
