"Recently, we have observed a certain increase in enemy activity in the Lyman sector, as the enemy's attempts to launch assaults in this sector of the 'Pomsta' Brigade's defense line have increased somewhat," he said.
According to Demchenko, Ukrainian soldiers are repelling these attacks and, for several days in a row, have been capturing Russian invaders who were attempting to dislodge Defense Forces soldiers from their positions.
"The enemy also remains active within the Sumy region, on various fronts. At times, they attempt assaults; at other times, they try to probe our defenses. The enemy's objective is to try to expand its area of control.
"But within the defense zones of the State Border Guard Service units, the enemy cannot do this and suffers casualties at the hands of our defenders," the spokesperson added.
