The SBGS also spoke about provocations by the occupiers.
Speaker of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine Oleksandr Demchenko stated that Russia shells Chernihiv and Sumy regions daily and repeatedly, Interfax-Ukraine reports. At the same time, there are cases when Russian planes fly into Ukrainian territory and fire on Russian territory.
“Classical border protection, as it should be perceived, with patrols along the border, does not happen, because there is a danger of mining, sabotage groups and most shelling by Russia from its territory through Ukraine. It happens every day, especially in Chernihiv and Sumy regions, and several times during the day, “Demchenko said during a briefing.
He also noted that the shelling is carried out with mortar and automatic grenade launchers. In addition, border guards record the work of enemy aircraft – both aircraft and helicopters. Flying to the border with Ukraine, they strike and retreat to Russian territory.
“There are some moments when Russian planes, entering the territory of Ukraine, not far away, turn around and strike at the territory of Russia – of course, in order to continue to blame Ukraine. They continue to inflate the situation. In recent days, we have also seen and recorded attacks from jet systems on the territory of Ukraine, “Demchenko explained.
