Occupants are trying to break through in Kharkiv region disguised as Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Diversion-reconnaissance groups from Russia in Kharkiv region are wearing Ukrainian uniforms, said the commander of the 'Achilles' battalion, Yuriy Fedorenko. According to him, Ukrainian special services have demonstrated a high quality of their work, but saboteurs still attempt to infiltrate through combat positions. Law enforcement agencies detect and eliminate most of these groups. Fedorenko noted that saboteurs act in the interests of Russian occupation forces but do not yet realize that they are actually working for the benefit of Ukraine. The 1029th day of the war continues, the most difficult situation is observed in Pokrovsk, Kurakhove, Kramatorsk, Toretsk, and Vremivka directions. In the past day, there were 183 combat clashes, and Ukrainian defenders continue to repel the enemy's attacks.
