However, there are no alarm bells for Kharkiv residents at present." Details: The military official added that the current numbers of troops on the border and the Kupiansk front remain unchanged. Fito explained that the Russians had been targeting this area since October, and the Ukrainian Defence Forces had seen their preparations and were responding with "symmetrical measures".
In particular, they deployed reserves and strengthened engineering structures. "We see now that the enemy is trying to find a gap in the defence along the entire area of responsibility of the Khortytsia Operational and Strategic Group. And their focus is shifting.
For example, it may shift from Bakhmut to Kupiansk or from Kupiansk to Bakhmut.
All areas are essential for the enemy," the spokesman stressed.
