A representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate, Andriy Yusov, commented on the words of the head of the GUR, Kirill Budanov, who stated that there are problems that tend to worsen, but there is no catastrophic situation regarding the threat of an offensive from the North. According to him, the information and situation are actively changing, which requires constant adjustments in the forms of information presentation. Yusov said this during a telethon, UNN reports.
Details
Information and the situation are actively changing. And when we talk about the form of presentation of information, interviews with reputable print media that are published several weeks and later after the interview, it is necessary to make certain amendments and corrections. This interview was conducted when active hostilities were taking place in the Kharkiv sector and the enemy was continuing its offensive. The Ukrainian Security and Defense Forces in the Kharkiv region have also disrupted the enemy's plans in another northern direction. But the real threat remains there
He emphasized that the occupiers will not give up their attempts to destabilize the situation and distract the forces and means of the Ukrainian Security and Defense Forces.
So yes, in this context, this issue is relevant. We are talking about the Russian-Ukrainian borders, we are talking about the northern direction
He also said that the scouts see the activity of enemy subversive reconnaissance groups in certain areas of the northern border and attempts to rotate, change, and replenish units that have suffered significant losses in manpower and equipment.
Of course, the Security and Defense Forces of Ukraine are closely monitoring this, preparing and taking active countermeasures
Recall
The head of the Defense Intelligence Service, Kirill Budanov, confirmed the existence of problems that tend to worsen, but assured that there is no catastrophic situation at the moment.
He made these comments after a journalist asked him about the possible impact of the Kremlin's plans to mobilize 300,000 Russians on further actions in the east and north.
