UKRAINE, KHARKIV OBLAST, Oct 23 — In the Kupiansk direction, there were 13 attacks, which Ukrainian forces repelled near Holubivka, Pishchane, Petropavlivka, Kolisnykivka, and Lozova, reported the General Staff.

From this section of the frontline, they also aim to push into Kharkiv Oblast and re-occupy Kupiansk and Kupiansk-Vuzlovyi, important logistics hubs for the region.
Today, DeepState OSINT investigators reported that Russian forces have advanced in Kruhliakivka, a village near the Oskil River.
According to the General Staff, there were also five combat clashes in the Kharkiv direction near the towns of Vovchansk and Starytsia.
