The intelligence informs that the very tense situation is expected at the entire front in the near future. 

"In the near future, there will be very tense situation at the entire front. It is not only about certain dates. In particular, now there are talks about Independence Day. Although this fact must also be taken into account," Andrii Yusov, a representative of the Chief Directorate of Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, said during the national telethon.
