Heavy fighting is underway on the Kupiansk front as Russian forces, consisting of 500 tanks, over 600 combat vehicles, hundreds of howitzers, and approximately 40,000 soldiers, are preparing for a major offensive. The buildup, reported by Ukraine's Ground Forces Commander and confirmed by Forbes and the National Security and Defense Council's Center for Countering Disinformation, aims to recapture the Kharkiv region, with additional offensives planned in Avdeevka. The timing of the military surge suggests a strategic move by Russia ahead of spring and potentially to coincide with election day. Ukrainian forces are digging in to defend against the attack, amid calls for urgent aid to Ukraine.
