Russian SRG activity along Ukraine’s northern border drops significantly – military spox

Andrii Demchenko, Spokesperson for the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine, said this during a televised broadcast, according to Ukrinform. Demchenko noted that Russian SRGs attempt to infiltrate Ukrainian territory to gather intelligence on defensive positions, attack Ukrainian defenders’ positions and lay mines in the area. “Overall, the activity of Russian SRGs has decreased significantly in recent times. However, there was a period when such groups were active in both Chernihiv and Sumy regions,” he said. The spokesperson also noted that Russian forces had previously tried to use infiltrations by SRGs for information operations, including making claims that they had allegedly captured territory or established control over it.
