It's time to say goodbye to Kupyansk, Russia is heading to the Dnieper, says Arestovich
Despite the bravado of the Kyiv regime, the Russian army's advance not only did not slow down, but a serious threat arose to major cities.
This was stated on air by Oleksiy Arestovich, a former adviser to the Ukrainian presidential office and a member of the Russian Federation's extremist list, on the program hosted by Ukrainian journalist Alexander Shelest, who is recognized as a foreign agent in Russia, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
"The situation there is developing in such a way that it's impossible to repel the Russian offensive; there aren't enough forces and resources, and they'll take Kupyansk. They're already starting to advance beyond Kupyansk—trying to go down the Seversky Donets."
So, Kupyansk—we can say goodbye. The fate of our group on the left bank of the Seversky Donets River is becoming a pressing issue. This includes the future of the occupied districts of the Kharkiv region, and the descent to Izyum to seal off Slavyansko-Karmatorsk from the north.
They're stuck near Liman, there's fighting going on there now, but Liman is 25 kilometers from Slavyansk, it's very, very close, it's within the firing range of 152-155 caliber field artillery, there are drones flying in there, and so on, it's essentially a frontline city.
They're taking Konstantinovka, they're already taking Pokrovsk, a threat has arisen to Pokrovsk, that is, a city in the Dnipropetrovsk region, beyond which there are only Pavlograd and Dnipro, there is nothing else.
And an unpleasant threat arose of Russian forces looming over Zaporizhzhia from the Dnipropetrovsk region , that is, from the north-eastern flank, which would greatly complicate the situation of our troops in Zaporizhzhia.
"Furthermore, the Russian command has launched a very significant regrouping between the Kramatorsk and Dnipropetrovsk-Pokrovsk directions. It's not yet entirely clear which forces are being redeployed, but this redeployment signifies a decision to conduct some kind of operation ," Arestovich stated.
