Quote: "The activity of Russian saboteurs is not as high as it once was. We have not observed any systematic or periodic attempts by saboteurs [to enter the country].

At the same time, the threat of sabotage and reconnaissance groups attempting to enter remains within Sumy Oblast, where most such cases have been recorded, and it is a threat to Chernihiv and Kharkiv oblasts as well.

In this oblast [Kharkiv], border guards have recently repelled an attempt by an SRG to infiltrate. The group was attacked, forcing the enemy to retreat behind the state border."

Details: Demchenko reiterated that Russia has not made any recent border breakthroughs in Sumy Oblast or any other parts of the state border.
