Meanwhile, the spokesman of the "Kharkiv" OTU Vitaly Sarantsev said on the air of "Suspilny" that the occupying army of the Russian Federation is also transferring part of the units from the Kharkiv region to Kurshchyna.
The Russians continue to shuffle the "deck of cards" they have. But at the same time, there are still enough forces and resources left in the Kharkiv direction to allow us to relax.
