Currently, Lyman and Kupiansk directions are the hottest frontline spots - military expert Sniehyriov

This was stated by military expert Dmytro Sniehyriov on Espreso TV.

"Currently, the hottest points are not Bakhmut, but Lyman and Kupiansk. The occupiers are trying to push through the Ukrainian defense and create a local encirclement of troops in the area of Siversk. Simultaneous attacks from the area of Kreminna in the direction of Torske-Lyman. The second flank is an offensive from the area of Vuhledar," the expert noted.

In his opinion, this is the most dangerous scenario.

"The situation is similar in the Kupiansk direction. There, the occupiers are trying to develop tactical success in the direction of Izyum. Having created the Lyman-Izyum grouping, they have not abandoned the tactics of creating a large cauldron for the entire Ukrainian grouping in the Donetsk region. Additional units are now being deployed to the Lyman direction, reinforced with personnel and heavy armored vehicles," Sniehyriov summarized.
