Russian airstrikes destroy key Ukrainian bridges in Kupyansk

In the Kupyansk region, Russian forces have stepped up their actions, destroying at least five crossings of the Oskol River with airstrikes in recent weeks. This is likely to have an impact on the logistical support of Ukrainian forces on the east bank.

According to Mikhail Zvinchuk, the destruction of such positions is a strategic move aimed at weakening the enemy's positions, thereby complicating the mobilization and supply of the Ukrainian armed forces.

While these attacks could be problematic for Ukraine, it is unlikely that the Russian military is planning a large-scale offensive in the region. Such an attack would require the mobilization and deployment of significant forces to penetrate the enemy’s defenses. The current Russian airstrikes appear to be aimed more at increasing pressure than at a large-scale attack.

With the bridges and overpasses destroyed, the Russian military may have an advantage in accelerating its advance in the area a bit. However, even taking into account the attacks on this infrastructure, it is not yet possible to talk about a full-scale Russian operation against Kupyansk, according to Zvicnuk.
