On the Kupiansk front, Ukrainian forces repelled 13 Russian attacks near the settlements of Kyslivka, Berestove, Kopanky (Kharkiv Oblast), Novoiehorivka, and Stelmakhivka (Luhansk Oblast).
The threat of a possible future Russian offensive operation against Kharkiv City is causing Ukraine to allocate additional forces and equipment to defending the city, although ISW continues to assess that the Russian military lacks the forces necessary to seize the city.
Russian troops struck the cities of Kupiansk and Vovchansk in Kharkiv Oblast on April 28, injuring two people
