The Kupiansk region, Western analyst "Suriyakmaps" stated that in the past week, due to the worsening situation, the Ukrainian army has begun to withdraw east of the Oskol River, and the Russian army easily occupied a large area east of Petropavlovka.

Currently, the Russian forces continue to bomb the bridges and ferries on the Oskol River, and are encircling the city from the west of the Kupiansk city. The Ukrainian troops east of the Oskol River have limited supplies, and their withdrawal is just a matter of time.
