Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups are constantly trying to get to the Vovchansk aggregate plant, the territory of which is currently controlled by the Defense Forces.
The spokesman for the Kharkiv Operational and Tactical Troops Group Yevhen Romanov reported this during a TV broadcast on Kyiv 24.
He also noted that the Ukrainian defenders are continuing the defensive operation, despite constant enemy shelling.
"We control this territory. Russian sabotage and reconnaissance groups are constantly trying to penetrate there. They are trying to exert constant pressure on this area, but it is extremely difficult for them to advance, as well as to provide logistics," Romanov noted.
The occupiers continue to cover this area with dense fire from all possible types of weapons. This includes North Korean shells. However, they are of poor quality and inaccurate and can harm the russians themselves.
"They don't work. Sometimes they destroy the occupiers who try to use them," Romanov noted.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, on Saturday, January 11, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that the Defense Forces captured two North Korean soldiers in the Kursk Oblast. According to him, this task was not easy: usually russians and other North Korean soldiers finish off their wounded and do everything to prevent evidence of the participation of another state - North Korea - in the war against Ukraine from being preserved.
The SSU also reported that the prisoners were taken to Kyiv for primary investigative measures. They are being held in appropriate conditions that meet the requirements of international law. The prisoners do not speak Ukrainian, English or russian, so communication with them is carried out through Korean translators in cooperation with the intelligence of South Korea – NIS.
