On the Belarusian border, our soldiers are further strengthening the line of defense of the border and populated areas and, as best they can, they are helped by the locals.

On the other side of the border, they hear military exercises, and against the background of the constant threat, they wonder if they might have to leave.

The displaced persons who fled the war to Rivne region are also afraid, but the threat of attack remains there as well, says TSN. 

The home of one of the largest families in Ukraine, where 19 children were raised, is only one and a half kilometers from the border.

"We are all experiencing day and night, that dream is gone.

Where to go, what to do, whether to drive or sit," says Svitlana, a mother of many children. 

More than once, they say, they saw rockets flying over Ukraine from Belarus.

At the beginning of the great war, in order to save the children if the invaders moved, they even packed suitcases.

Now they are closely monitoring the situation at the border, and will leave, they say, as a last resort.

This border region in the Rivne region is famous for large families, and since the beginning of the war, a total of only 10 families have left 4 nearby villages.

Someone admits the possibility that in case of danger, they will have to leave their homes.

"Of course there are worries.

Sometimes they say that number, then they say that number.

Something will happen, there will be an attack, that's it," local resident Oksana is convinced.

And someone says, in spite of everything, he will remain to defend his own.

"We will protect our border, we have been determined for a long time," - say local men. 

3-year-old Nastya, her mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother live in the border area of ​​the Rivne region.

They fled in order not to end up in Russian occupation in their native Melitopol.

Now it's scary, they say, because of the probable attack already from Belarus.

"I am very worried whether this will happen or not.

My God, we don't know what to think.

We hope that the Armed Forces will still stop this aggression", - say the settlers. 

Locals are worried, but do not panic, they are convinced by the military administration.

The population also increased due to thousands of immigrants.

They admit that the probability of an attack is really there, as it has been for almost a year.

But they are reassuring, the situation is under control and the border is being strengthened non-stop.

"Today, we significantly increased the intensity of preparations from the line of defense to the circular defense of populated areas," says Oleksandr Kokhan, the head of the Sarna military administration. 

Locals help the military in everything, the elders say.

If necessary, they say, they will also "help" unwanted foreigners, but return home quickly.

"We know the tropes better, where, what they are.

Sent them back there in packages.

There is a lot of water now, you can throw it into the river from the bridge, they will swim home," say the locals. 

They also advise you to have common sense, not to go and not to lose your life in Ukraine.
