The Ukrainian Defense Forces have achieved notable success in the Kupiansk direction by severing supply routes for Russian occupiers. As a result, Russian units in Kupiansk are now effectively isolated from their main forces and cannot reliably receive ammunition or supplies. This was confirmed by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in his address, highlighting the achievements and bravery of Ukrainian soldiers in the area.
President Zelensky personally visited frontline units in Kupiansk, expressing gratitude to the military for their service and stressing the importance of battlefield victories for diplomatic efforts. The operation was carried out thanks to coordinated actions by Defense and Security Forces units, such as the Khartiya brigade, assault troops, SBU special forces, and several others.
According to the author, despite Russian claims of control over the city, this Ukrainian operation was conducted with careful planning and rendered Russian assertions empty. The event also carries geopolitical weight, as Ukrainian successes impact not only Russian rhetoric but also influence the position of Donald Trump in the United States, who is under pressure regarding the war in Ukraine.
The author points out the need for reforms in the Ukrainian Armed Forces, citing issues such as systemic dishonesty and bureaucracy. To maintain the army's effectiveness and avoid mistakes similar to those of the enemy, urgent reforms are required.
In conclusion, the author notes the ongoing difficult situation for Ukraine, urges continued support for the military through donations, and emphasizes that frontline victories do not eliminate the need for ongoing reforms and greater internal efficiency within the armed forces.
