The offensive of Russian troops: the threat of invasion appeared for three new regions of Ukraine - the media
The Defense Forces of Ukraine do not exclude attempts on the offensive to the Chernihiv region, although this option is recognized as unlikely because of adverse geographical conditions. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation has been coming in the Sumy region for several weeks to displace the Ukrainian forces from the Kursk region and to create a buffer zone in the region at the same time. The closest goal of the invaders is to go to the village of Loknya, the interlocutors say.
Recently, there were also data on the capture of the village of Zhuravka in Sumy region, which is located just on the border with Russia. Several villages of Sumy region are bombardized and fired from artillery daily. "Our units are trying to restrain the Russians and direct the strengthening there," the second source said. The probability of the surrounding Russian occupiers of the city is estimated by the agency's interlocutors as low.
The Armed Forces prepare for various variants of actions of Russians, in particular for their activation in the area of Siverskaya Donetsk region and in the south - in the area of Zaporizhzhia region. The sources noted that in the south of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation lead "limited" attacks of tactical level in the area of the island on the Dnieper in the Kherson region.
In case of advancement in Donetsk region, an attempt in the Dnipropetrovsk region can not be excluded. We will remind, the head of Sumy Regional Military Administration Vladimir Artyukh declared on April 11 about the absence of Russian troops in the region. The Armed Forces restrained storms in the Zhuravka and Basivka area. The sources of the Air Force Radio Snatius in the General Staff of the Armed Forces spoke about the possible threat of the city of Sumy.
