According to the official, the enemy group does not pose a threat to Kharkiv, its forces are only enough for provocations in the northern direction.

“All the authorities are working, on the ground and fulfilling their duties. We urge civilians in the border settlements to take shelter, as the enemy does not care whether they strike at military infrastructure or unarmed civilians,” he emphasized.
