Heavy enemy fire has prompted Ukraine's military to reposition some troops in the Kupiansk direction to the east of the country's second largest city, Kharkiv, the General Staff said on Wednesday.
"In certain districts, as a result of intensive enemy fire, our units regrouped to more advantages positions," the late-night report said.
Kupiansk was occupied by Russian troops in the first weeks of the February 2022 invasion, but recaptured by Ukrainian forces later in the year. The area has seen heavy fighting in recent months.
