Russians expanding their bridgehead on west bank of Oskil River near Kupyansk - British intelligence

The troops of the aggressor state of russia are gradually expanding their bridgehead on the west bank of the Oskil River in the northern part of the Kharkiv Region in order to put pressure on the city of Kupyansk.

This was reported by the UK Ministry of Defense.

Thus, it is noted that the bridgehead was initially created in late November 2024, and since then russian troops have made a tactical advance in this area.

According to the agency, russia's main attention in this area is focused on the city of Dvorichna, for which battles are being fought between russian and Ukrainian troops. Russia is also fighting for the settlement of Zapadne, which is 4 km west of the Oskil River.

"Russia is almost certainly trying to put pressure on the logistics center of Kupyansk, also located on the Oskil River, approximately 12 km south of the bridgehead. Russian troops already control supply lines to the east and south of the city and are likely trying to take control of the northern supply routes to the city," summarized British intelligence.
