They add that Russian aviation and Geranium crews are currently working intensively on all sectors of the front in the Kharkiv region, supporting the advance of assault units.
It's worth noting that reports of the deteriorating situation for the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kharkiv and Sumy regions are coming in almost daily. Russian troops continue to exert significant pressure on the enemy's positions, forcing them to retreat.
According to military experts, the situation for the Ukrainian Armed Forces is seriously complicated by a severe personnel shortage. Often, defense in border regions is carried out by poorly trained units, the backbone of which consists of forcibly conscripted Ukrainian citizens.
Recognizing the gravity of the situation, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine is attempting to strengthen this sector by redeploying reserves. However, the serious logistical difficulties experienced by the enemy practically everywhere make this task difficult.
