The enemy constantly attacks: military named 'hot spots' in the Kharkiv direction.
In the Kharkiv region, Russian occupiers are increasing their attacks in the Vovchansk area, reported the spokesman for the Operational-Tactical Group 'Kharkiv'.
'The operational situation in the area of responsibility of the operational-tactical group Kharkiv has not changed significantly lately, but remains complex. The greatest activity is traditionally shown by the Russians in the Vovchansk area,' said the spokesman of the OTU 'Kharkiv' Pavlo Shamshin.
Occupiers are using various artillery, mortars, multiple launch systems, and heavy flamethrower systems to destroy the city. Enemy drones, which are actively used in the sky over Vovchansk, are particularly dangerous. The enemy is also transferring its infantry groups to the right bank of the Oskil River in the Dvorichne area, creating a threat to the city of Kupiansk from the northern side along the right bank.
Military expert Pavlo Shamshin warned that the Russians' plan is to control the logistics route that passes through the settlements of Mala Shapkivka and Zapadne along the R-79 highway.
