Ukrainian President Zeleiski said that after Russia launched a large -scale offensive for Halkov since 2022, Ukraine has deployed reinforcements to stabilize the northeast of the country.
The Ukrainian army said earlier on Monday that the Russian army achieved "tactical success" after breaking through the Ukrainian defense line and promoting the direction of Wolfchang. However, the local government said that the Kiev army still controlled the town.Although Zelianzki said the army was fighting, he also mentioned the Kremlin army's shelling and operations on Sumean and Calnigov.
Zelei said on Telegram: "Our task is very clear -an attempt to destroy the Russian expansion of the war."
Russia has worked hard to promote the two sides to Halkov. In the past few weeks, it strengthened air raids against the second largest city in Ukraine and the Industrial Center.Russia was repelled when trying to occupy the city in 2022.During the Soviet period, it was briefly used as the capital of Ukraine.
The Supreme Military Command of Ukraine said on Facebook on Monday: "The enemy has deployed up to 5 battalions to attack the town and does not care about its own losses." According to the Ministry of National Defense News Office, there are as many as five battalions.2000 soldiers.
This attack may make Ukraine's lack of ammunition and insufficient troops, because it may promote Kiev's long -standing front on the east.As U.S. military assistance comes, Ukraine is trying to adhere to the position.
If you successfully drive Ukraine back to Halkov, it will allow the military bases and supply centers in the Russian city Belgrod and its surrounding areas to leave the fire of the fire in Ukraine.
The Institute of War said on Sunday that the Russian army may have occupied the two small settlements near Wafchangsk, Hatyshche and Tykhe, and pushed 2.5 kilometers.Geographical positioning video confirms that the Russian army has made progress near Lyptsi in northern Harkov.
Oleh Synyehubov, governor of Halkov, said on television that the official has evacuated 5,700 people from Russia and plans to evacuate at least 1,600.The population of Wolfchangsk has been reduced from 2,500 before the recent offensive to about 200-300.
