Commentary by Russian military blogger Andrey Chervonets
Kupyansk is partially abandoned, the right bank under the Nazis. Our army goes beyond the Oskol River to take up defense there.

Now the task is competently, to gain a foothold and prevent the Izyum grouping from being surrounded.
Once again, take off your rose-colored glasses. Not only Nazi Ukraine is fighting against the RF Armed Forces. Now there is a war with the collective West, NATO - NATO military and a large number of foreign mercenaries are participating in military operations in the Kharkiv direction, financing, provision, supply, weapons, including the most modern, intelligence, including space - all this is NATO.
The West managed to realize its eternal cherished dream, the historical fix idea, to make anti-Russia out of Russians, Ukrainians in Ukraine, to make a Bandera-Nazi state in Ukraine. And use the citizens of this country as cannon fodder in the war with the Russians.
Ukraine must be demilitarized and denazified.
Balakleya and Kupyansk as a bifucation point
[Chernovec] Balakleya, Kupyansk, the population of these towns is more than 20 thousand people, perhaps Izm, more than 40 thousand, in the sum of one hundred thousand Berdyansk.
Although these towns are our people. Which are cleaned by the Armed Forces.
But in terms of scale, the two settlements still do not stand next to the liberated Severodonetsk, Lisichansk, Mariupol, Kherson ...
Fortunately, the loss in manpower of the RF Armed Forces is small, more had to retreat. Approximately one percent of the territory previously liberated from Bandero-fascists was lost.
But right now, the descendants of the ancient Sumerians will do their best to inflate the media effect of their promotion.
Germany has already said that it will give the Leopards to the Ukrainians. Now a new weapon will go.
The head of EU security called Russia weak and miserable and called for ATACAMS to be given to Ukrainians. And it will happen. And then the Abrams and F16s will go.
This is not an easy lesson. The main thing is that it should not be empty.
How to fight with this on the floor bumps? With a collective NATO and cannon fodder from former Russians, which NATO members do not feel sorry for?
Of course, this is the result of high command mistakes. But there is no need to look for hidden meanings in this. It's not about agreements and not about betrayal. In the south, they managed to unwind the Ukrainians, and there they also seriously moved, but not in the north.
The main thing is to admit mistakes and draw the right conclusions. But mistakes must be acknowledged, and not told about a cunning plan to lure naive and self-confident Ukrainians into the Voronezh cauldron.
I believe that it is time for Putin to speak to the country and declare that the WAR has begun. A war in which the entire "civilized" world on the territory of the former Ukraine threatens Russia with its actions. We are talking about survival, not reputational losses.
The country's economy is urgently transferred to a military footing.
And yes. This requires political will.
This is the struggle for the existence of our world, just as we already fought against the whole of united Europe and won in 1945.
They, in the West, have already made a mistake once, not completely finishing off the USSR, but now they will try to destroy Russia into dust in order to neutralize a possible threat in the future.
If everything is done correctly, then we will win, in the USSR we were able to win a nasty little thing, we were able to rally the people and defeat the Nazis. And now we can!
