Underground War in Kharkiv Region: Occupants Dig Tunnels in Vovchansk to Destroy Ukrainian Defense Structures.


The occupying Russian forces continue to use underground tunnels to approach Ukrainian defense positions in the Kharkiv region. This information was released by the representative of the press service 'Chartia' Volodymyr Degtyaryov. According to him, this enemy tactic is not new and was noticed as early as 2023 in the Avdiivka direction. Russian forces use tunnels to ensure logistics in urban development conditions and to carry out destruction of Ukrainian defense structures. Degtyaryov emphasized that bombings and attacks are not always effective against this tactic, so Ukrainian forces have to enter the tunnels to clear them. In Degtyaryov's opinion, the Russian troops are well skilled at creating tunnels, posing a serious threat to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
