Russian Armed Forces Enter Kupiansk for the First Time!
According to Russian Telegram channels, on August 3, 2025, the Russian Armed Forces entered the city of Kupiansk in Kharkiv Oblast from the northwest direction.
Kupiansk is considered one of the most important logistics centers for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and the Kupiansk-Harkiv highway plays a key role in supplying equipment and rotating personnel for the Ukrainian army.
Ukrainian officials previously stated that they were preparing to transfer reserve forces to the neighboring Sumy Oblast near Kupiansk, which may indicate that the Ukrainian military had anticipated changes in the situation in Kupiansk and had begun redeploying.
