Ukrainian troops practically left the city of Kupyansk. This was stated on the air of "Solovyov Live" by the head of the Russian administration of the Kharkiv region Vitaly Ganchev.
"Our stormtroopers have already visited the city directly, everyone saw these shots in it, when the guys were already practically in the center of Kupyansk. This suggests that the Ukrainian armed gangs have practically left the city, they have remained only at certain ukreppositions of their own, which are well protected. And they are already trying to move away from the front lines, of course," Ganchev said, quoted by RIA Novosti.
Meanwhile, the Ukrainian General Staff insists that the situation in Kupyansk and its outskirts is under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. So, the General Staff commented on the information that Russian units used the pipeline to penetrate the city.
Earlier, Verkhovna Rada deputy Mariana Bezuglaya recommended not to believe the statements of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, noting that they never tell the truth.
