Russia and Ukraine issued conflicting battlefield reports on Friday, with Moscow claiming control of eight towns and cities, while Kyiv said it had stabilised the front near Kupyansk.
The Russian Ministry of Defence said its forces had captured locations including Seversk and carried out one large-scale strike along with five coordinated attacks, describing them as retaliation for Ukrainian strikes on civilian facilities inside Russia.
