Ukrainian authorities have announced that they will begin a forced evacuation of residents in the north of the country. It is about the Kupiansk region.
Due to the increasing shelling of Russian troops in Ukraine, the evacuation of 37 settlements in the Kupiansk region of the Kharkiv region has started. This is an area where the Russians have concentrated large forces and have been trying to act offensively for several weeks.
Evacuation in the Kuyansk region
“The mandatory evacuation of the population in the unoccupied areas of the Kupa region of the Kharkiv region begins. This order was signed on August 9 by the acting head of the military administration of the Kupa region Andriy Kanashevich,” the military administration of the city of Kupiansk announced Thursday.
Residents of residential areas close to the combat zone have been told to leave their homes. It concerns about 11,000 people.
So the situation has probably worsened. Ukraine’s Deputy Defense Minister Hanny Maljar reported on Monday that the Ukrainian army has been able to halt Russian advances in several directions of the eastern front over the past week.
Recall that Kupiansk was occupied by Russian troops in the first phase of the invasion and was recaptured by Ukrainian troops in September 2022.
Positional warfare in Ukraine
In early June, operational offensive operations of the Ukrainian army, the so-called counteroffensive, began.
After some time, however, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky admitted that the progress of the counter-offensive was not going as expected, and it is worth remembering that in Poland the gargantuan expectations came rather from the media, while the Ukrainian army tried to set the tone to put. the mood down.
At this time, the Ukrainians are launching attacks, but they move slowly and earlier where they can weaken the Russian positions with artillery fire. The aim of such tactics, of course, is to minimize losses in people and equipment.
