Russians intensify shelling of Ukraine’s border areas: 1,700 attacks since early June

Russian invaders have tripled the number of attacks on Ukraine’s border areas.

The relevant statement was made by Spokesperson for the Ukrainian State Border Guard Service Andrii Demchenko during a nationwide telethon, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

“Russia is intensifying the shelling of Ukraine’s territory, and the Kharkiv region is affected the most. Prior to that, they launched most strikes on the Sumy region. The number of attacks has tripled recently. A total of 1,700 Russian attacks have been recorded since early June,” Demchenko told.

A reminder that, on the night of June 29, 2023, Russian invaders struck the Kharkiv region’s Chuhuiv with the S-300 missiles. Residential houses and cars were damaged.
