Residents Rebuild After Kharkiv Town Recaptured by Ukrainian Forces
Residents in Kupiansk, one of the cities in Ukraine’s Kharkiv Oblast recaptured by Ukrainian forces in mid-September, began to rebuild after months of Russian occupation and fighting left the city damaged.
The Ukrainian armed forces said on September 11 they had liberated districts in the cities of Izyum and Kupiansk.
Footage showed soldiers raising Ukrainian flags and removing the Russian tricolour from parts of Kupiansk on September 12.
