Andrii Kuskov "Cesar," commander of the 3rd battalion of the 15th Brigade of the National Guard, shared the information on Espreso TV.“Today, the Russians lack the capacity for a large-scale offensive on the Kupiansk front. They face logistical problems, particularly with crossings over the Oskil River, preventing them from concentrating significant forces and equipment. Russian troops rely on one tactic — mass assaults in small groups. These assaults are continuous, putting pressure on the Defense Forces, but they should not be expected to change the strategic or operational situation,” Kuskov explained.He also noted that changing weather conditions now help Ukrainian units better detect the Russians.“The changing weather works in our favor. Russian forces continue to use natural cover, which is abundant in Kharkiv region, especially forests. This was a challenge for us, but as leaves fall, it becomes easier to spot the enemy. We have strengthened and fortified our positions,” he added.Since the start of October 11, 160 combat clashes have been recorded on the Russian-Ukrainian front. The Russians attacked Ukrainian positions 46 times in the Pokrovsk sector.
