Military see no Russian preparations for breakthrough toward Kharkiv

Joint Forces Group spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Viktor Trehubov said this in a televised interview, answering a question about whether the military had detected any preparations by Russian occupation forces for operations during periods of heavy snowfall, Ukrinform reports. "Not at the moment. The Russians have been tasked with establishing a control zone in the immediate border area. That is not about any major breakthrough; it is about maintaining constant pressure. And that is what they are doing. To say that we see preparations for something on a massive scale, a breakthrough, I don't know, toward Kharkiv – no. Absolutely not, because we can see Russian troop movements and their build-ups.
