"Trying to find weaknesses": experts explained if the Russian Federation will be able to capture Kupyansk
The regrouping is being carried out," said Vladimir Fitio, pressecretic of the Armed Forces Command. He noted that the enemy began to use managed aircraft more often. Instead, the head of the Center for Military Legal Research Alexander Musienko is convinced that there are not many in the Kupyansk threat. According to him, within a few months the situation does not change especially, the invaders accumulate forces, take attack, and the Armed Forces reflect it.
Musienko believes that the enemy will be forced to stop the offensive, even if they get minor tactical successes. "It is just another round of escalation with the emphasis on living power. Plus the weather is interfered with, the occupiers themselves complain about it. It seems to me that here we will confidently restrain the enemy, because he has much less power than it was a month or two ago," Musienko said.
The military-political observer of the Information Resistance group Alexander Kovalenko stated that the Russian military has no particular chances in the occupation of the city and in the access to the Oskyl on the Limano-Kupyansk axis. He noted that the Center group has lost the most capable units-units of the 90th Panzer Division, the 2nd and 41st General Armies of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.
The expert stressed that almost all units were sent to Avdiivka, so the enemy lost the opportunity to go to Oskil. However, the enemy will continue to press on Kupyansk, in particular it has a numerical advantage, but on the other hand the Armed Forces have erected serious fortifications, and their breakthrough requires more powerful resources. "And they cannot afford it, because all resources are absorbed by Avdiivka," Kovalenko said.
We will remind, on November 21, the commander of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Colonel-General Alexander Sirsky stated that the Russian military continues offensive actions in Kupyansk direction. He noted that the enemy wants to go to Sinkivka of Kharkiv region, then to go to Kupyansk. On November 18, it became known that the border guards of the Guard Brigade "Steel Border" were struck by the excavator of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Kupyansk.
