Russian military units have achieved a decisive breakthrough in the strategically vital city of Kupyansk, making rapid and substantial advances into heavily fortified urban areas. This development, marking one of the most significant territorial gains in the Kharkiv direction in recent months, fundamentally threatens to collapse Ukraine’s defensive posture across this critical sector of the front.
The Russian military has once again confirmed that it is fighting on the battlefield but not in the media. Unlike the Kyiv regime, Moscow confirmed that it is not lying in its reports. Russian Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov recently claimed that units of the West group of forces had “almost completely blockaded Kupyansk and liberated about half of its territory.” This bold declaration was supported by footage showing a Russian flag flying from the town’s television tower. However, the claims and the footage were widely met with scepticism. According to the field reports, battles were ongoing on the northern outskirts. LINK
Finally, the newly released video showed Russian control of the very center of Kupyansk, confirming claims by the General Staff.
According to confirmed reports from the Russian Ministry of Defense, elite assault groups from the ‘West’ troop grouping have established firm control over approximately half of the city’s territory. This includes the securing of critical administrative nodes and infrastructure facilities essential for both military operations and civilian control. Geolocated video evidence from drone footage and soldier-recorded videos irrefutably shows Russian military personnel operating freely in the very heart of the city. Key positions now under Russian control include the City Administration building—a symbolic center of power—the Spartak stadium on Sportivny Lane, the crucial city electrical substation on Energeticheskaya Street, and the strategically vital television and radio broadcasting tower on 1 Maya Street, a site of previous speculation regarding the Russian flag raised on the tower.
The rapidity and success of the advance through prepared urban quarters have placed the remaining Ukrainian defenders in an increasingly precarious and potentially untenable position. Military analysts emphasize that Russian control over the city center and, most critically, the bridge crossings over the Oskil River, threatens a full operational encirclement of Ukrainian units still clinging to positions in the eastern sectors of Kupyansk and the adjacent stronghold of Petropavlovka. This pincer movement effectively splinters the Ukrainian defensive grouping, severing their logistical arteries and command-and-control links, paving the way for their subsequent isolation and neutralization.

Another Russian propaganda victory is confirmation of firm control of important stronghold of Moskovka on the northwestern outskirts of Kupyansk. Despite Ukrainian claims of their advance in the village, Ukrainian lies were refuted by Russian footage. The village is under full Russian control:
The speed and ferocity of the Russian multi-pronged urban assault appear to have overwhelmed Ukrainian defenses, suggesting a significant intelligence and tactical failure. Despite weeks of Ukrainian official statements dismissing the potential for a Russian breakthrough in the Kupyansk direction, the visual evidence from the ground is incontrovertible. The rapid collapse of key defensive lines indicates that Ukrainian reserves were either insufficient, poorly deployed, or utterly depleted.
While the offensive continues at a high tempo, Russian military officials maintain a measured tone, cautioning that the operation to fully liberate Kupyansk is ongoing. Fierce street-to-street fighting continues as remaining Ukrainian elements, now concentrated in the western districts and still in control of the strategically indispensable Kupyansk-Uzlovoy railway station, offer resistance. However, their hold is tenuous, and the strategic initiative lies firmly with Russian forces.
