Supply at risk
Russians advance: Ukraine forced to evacuate
Due to the Russian advance and supply problems in winter, the Ukrainian authorities have ordered the evacuation of the strategically important city of Kupjansk and three other towns in the Kharkiv region. Around 7000 inhabitants are to be relocated.
The reasons are the advance of Russian troops and difficulties in supplying the population in winter, explained the governor of the Kharkiv region, Oleh Syniehubov. The evacuation is mandatory.
Repair troops are fired upon immediately
The Ukrainian military command reported 19 battles near Kupjansk in the last 24 hours. "The situation is most difficult in the Kupyansk sector. On the eastern side of the Oskil River, we can no longer guarantee the restoration of electricity, heat and water supplies due to the constant shelling," said Syniehubov. "All repair teams immediately come under Russian fire."
Around 7000 residents are to be housed in evacuation centers in Kharkiv. Meanwhile, Russian forces reported territorial gains in the east, while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyi said his troops were holding their positions.
