Border guards do not detect a powerful strike group on the Ukrainian-Russian border, the presence of which could mean readiness for an offensive.

This was announced by the spokesman of the State Border Service Andriy Demchenko during a telethon on Friday, February 3.

"There (on the Russian-Ukrainian border - ed.) a powerful strike group, fortunately, has not yet been identified. However, Russia continues its terrorist activities, daily shelling the border of Ukraine - both in Chernihiv Oblast, Sumy Oblast, and part of Kharkiv Oblast." , - he said.

Regarding the situation in Belarus, Demchenko said that they do not notice the movement of military equipment or personnel of Russian or Belarusian units near the Ukrainian border.

Russia is preparing for revenge

During the new offensive, Russia may be the first to throw the mercenaries of the "Wagner" PMC into battle and the fighters of the "LDNR", so they may simply disappear from the arena of hostilities.

This opinion was expressed by military and political commentator Oleksandr Kovalenko.

After the destruction, in his opinion, the Russian Federation 

will send more valuable and more or less equipped paratroopers to the offensive

.

As for the date of the new major offensive of the Russian Federation, it may happen around February 24, according to Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov.

The directions of the enemy's attack may be the north, south and east, warned Oleksiy Danilov, secretary of the NSDC.
