Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups are most active in the Sumy region

According to the State Border Guard Service (SBGS), since the end of 2023, the Russians have been most actively using their sabotage and intelligence groups in the Sumy region.

The spokesman of the State Border Service, Andriy Demchenko, said that the invaders are trying to use the sabotage and intelligence groups (SIG), in particular, with the aim of exposing the locations of Ukrainian defenders, the defence line, in order to inflict damage there.

Such groups can consist of 4-5 people, there were groups of more than 10 people, and there were even up to 20, which during their actions tried to even divide into smaller groups in order to surround our defenders. Attempts to attack the DRG (SIG) are recorded along the entire length of the border of Sumy region — they appear in all areas. But we expose such groups, Demchenko said.
