Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reiterated his claim that Russian forces have not captured the eastern city of Kupyansk, citing his recent visit to the front line area as evidence. Speaking to parliament in The Hague, Zelensky accused Vladimir Putin of lying about Russia taking the city and said his trip was meant to prove otherwise. The visit drew scrutiny after geolocation suggested he was near, but not inside, Kupyansk, and online speculation questioned its authenticity. Ukraine said it had regained nearby settlements, while Russia maintains it controls the city.
