The Russian-Ukrainian war continues and the occupiers do not stop trying to break through the defense of the Defense Forces of Ukraine in the direction of Borova in the Kharkiv region, said Viktor Petrovych, a serviceman of the 77th separate airborne brigade of the Airborne Assault Forces of Ukraine.
"For the last two weeks, the assaults have been ongoing, but without the use of equipment lately. That is, the enemy is trying to storm our positions on foot. He is also trying to accumulate forces for this. As far as we understand, in order to deliver a more massive blow later, when he has accumulated forces." , - the military said on the air of the telethon.
He also added that the occupiers are regularly shelling Borovaya and nearby settlements with anti-aircraft guns. In particular, according to the military, this way the occupiers are trying to put pressure on both the Ukrainian defenders and the local population.
"Perhaps, they are looking for some of our rear targets that they want to hit. However, the deviation of the KABs they launch can be up to half a kilometer. We know that some of their KABs generally fall on Russia. What is he talking about here. Where would they go they wanted to hit - sometimes they understand, sometimes they don't. For example, if they hit the crossings - it's clear, they hit to save us logistics. And when I fly to the monument to Soviet soldiers - it's not quite clear where they were aiming, or they're just for decommunization ", - added Petrovych.
When asked how often the occupiers use air defense systems in this direction, the Ukrainian defender answered: "They often use them. I wouldn't say that somehow with an increase. However, they use them constantly, regularly, in fact every day. Constantly flying ZALA, Eagles, Supercam. We are always looking for a reconnaissance wing in the sky and we understand that now there is a greater risk of being hit by KABs, we need to hide somewhere, stay away from certain objects."
