Denysenko: Invaders failed to break through from Balaklia to Dnipropetrovsk region

Kharkiv is still being fired on at night, and  Russians failed attempt of breakthrough from Balaklia in the Kharkiv region to the Dnipropetrovsk region

This was stated by Adviser to the Minister of Internal Affairs Vadym Denysenko.

He noted that the night passed relatively, so to speak, calmly. There were shellings in Kharkiv.

The relative positive is that today the Russians tried to make a breakthrough in Balaklia towards the Dnipropetrovsk region, but they were stopped. A column of Russian equipment is smashed."

Denysenko said that fighting was also taking place in the Sumy region, a relatively small column of invaders was defeated.

"According to operative data, we understand that the Russians want to break through on the one hand, on the Luben side. This is the Poltava region. On the other side, there's the Kaniv HPP.

The situation in Kyiv that night was relatively calm. But on the outskirts of Kyiv, there is a huge armada of Russian equipment. Irpin, Bucha, Hostomel: the situation is very difficult," he said.

According to Denysenko, "these are cities where there is virtually no electricity, no water supply. Cities are on the verge of a humanitarian catastrophe. In Trostianka, the Russians simply robbed all the shops, and in fact, only thanks to the efforts of a local farmer and a few local people, bread is baked and distributed to people for free."

The situation in Mariupol is very difficult: "Yesterday we did not manage to make any humanitarian corridors, and the situation is on the verge of a humanitarian catastrophe."

The western regions, according to Denysenko, are "in a relatively safe zone" at the moment.

Denysenko noted that Ukrainian forces were ready to continue fighting: "We understand what the enemy wants, and I think we know how to fight it. The last few days have shown it."

He also hopes that the Russians will not receive reinforcements from Belarus: "Panic has started among the male population of Belarus. The number of men who go abroad en masse has increased.

The probability that Aleksandr Lukashenko will send his troops to Ukraine is small: the Belarusian army is small and demotivated."
