Escalation of the Russia-Ukraine situation: The Russian military's attack on the Sumy region and Kharkiv region has begun

[Seriskiy: Russia's offensive on Sumy and Kharkiv regions "has already begun."]

On April 9, in an interview with the Left Bank media, Ukraine's Armed Forces Commander Alexander Seriskiy commented on President Zelensky's statement that Russian troops were preparing to launch an offensive on the Sumy and Kharkiv regions: "I can say that the president is completely correct, and this offensive has actually begun. Because for nearly a week now, we have observed that the number of enemy offensive actions across all main directions has almost doubled."

Zelensky had previously stated in March that according to Ukrainian intelligence reports, Russia was preparing a new offensive in the Sumy region, Kharkiv region, and Zaporizhzhia region. Zelensky believed that Russian President Putin was attempting to drag out peace talks to buy time in order to try to seize more Ukrainian territories.
