Spokesperson Demchenko says enemy forces could increase sabotage operations along Ukraine's northern border, with additional troop transfers to Chernihiv region not ruled out.

Sabotage activity by Russian occupation forces in Ukraine's Chernihiv and Sumy regions is expected to increase, according to a statement attributed to Demchenko and reported by Ukrinform.
