Details
In response to questions about the attempts of Russian saboteurs to cross the border into the Shostka district, as well as regarding the current operational situation, Vadym Mysnyk noted the following:
The enemy continues shelling the border. Waves for several days. On the sixth day of border shelling, the activity is very low. There is a decrease in the activity of UAVs and FPV drones. They are trying to cover this with mortar fire.
Mysnyk noted that the decrease in enemy activity is a result of the actions of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. But the enemy also lacks resources.
At the same time, Russian troops are trying to restrain Ukrainian military resources. The enemy is trying to prevent the redeployment of Ukrainian Armed Forces units to hotter sections of the front, Mysnyk explained.
The highest concentration of enemy troops is in those areas bordering the zone of the Kursk operation – there, infantry units are trying to test the strength of our defense. The local terrain is complex – marshy, forested. We are trying to use this to our advantage.

Regarding drones - the situation remains the same, added the spokesman for the Joint Forces Operation "Siversk".
That is, the enemy launches them by the dozens throughout the day. On the border, the enemy uses all systems to the maximum.
