"There (in Kupyansk - ed.) on the contrary - more optimistic, because the Russians strongly rushed and greatly overestimated their forces," Tregubov said.

He said the Russians tried to tighten the reality to their own statements, but made things worse.

"The Russians are present in the northern parts of the city, and there they are destroyed by Ukrainian drones and counter-actions," the speaker said.

At the same time, he said, the enemy is trying to increase pressure in other directions.

"The Russians are trying to pressurize the west of the city in parallel, that's first of all. And secondly, they are trying to bypass the city from the south and put pressure in the area of Kupyansk-Uzlovoye, to displace Ukrainian troops from the left bank of the Oskol," Tregubov said.
