On the official channel of the Special Operations Forces of Ukraine, it was reported that there was a recent attempt by a sabotage and reconnaissance group to cross the Ukrainian border in the Sumy region. The operators of the Special Operations Forces detected their route and eliminated part of the saboteurs. The enemy military tried to flee to Russian territory, but they were caught and destroyed.
