Quote: "The [front] line [in the area of responsibility of the Khortytsia OSGF – ed.] remains highly dynamic. The enemy is pursuing offensive actions, particularly near [the town of] Kupiansk and outside Tabaivka, where heavy fighting is underway. The village is not currently under the control of the Russians: artillery duels are taking place in the area."
Details: Yevlash added that over the last 24 hours, Ukrainian defenders on the Lyman-Kupiansk front have managed to kill over 228 Russian troops and destroy 75 pieces of weaponry, including tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, video surveillance systems, and various types of electronic warfare equipment.
Background: Volodymyr Fito, Head of the Public Relations Service of the Ukrainian Ground Forces Command, also denied that Tabaivka has been captured. "The enemy claims to have captured Tabaivka, but this does not correspond to reality. There has been fighting not far from this settlement."
