Oleg Synyegubov noted that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are confidently holding their positions — not a single meter has been lost.
The enemy group does not pose a threat to Kharkiv, its forces are sufficient only for provocations in the northern direction. All authorities are working, are on the ground and fulfill their duties.
We call on the civilian population of the border settlements to stay in shelters , because it makes no difference to the enemy whether to attack military infrastructure or unarmed civilians, Synyegubov concluded.
The situation in the Kharkiv direction
Andriy Kovalenko, head of the Center for Countering Disinformation at the National Security and Defense Council (NSDC), said that the actions of the Russian troops were predictable. Earlier it was noted that the enemy may have resources for escalation in the border areas of the Kharkiv region, but not for an attack on Kharkiv.
Also today, information appeared on the network that there is allegedly a difficult situation in the direction of the city of Vovchansk (approximately 70 km from Kharkiv). It was noted that the Russian army can allegedly attract reserves in this direction.
Stanislav Bunyatov, call sign "Osman", commented on the situation near Vovchansk.
At night, the enemy conducted powerful artillery training. Sabotage-reconnaissance groups tried to feel the border line. In the near future, it is expected that the main reserves will be attracted, we must fight back.
