The Air Force has warned of a possible new large-scale attack by Russia in the coming days
Russia may launch a new large-scale attack on Ukrainian territory in the coming days.
This was stated by Yuriy Ignat, a spokesperson for the Ukrainian Air Force, during a televised broadcast.
According to him, Ukrainian intelligence and partners are detecting signs that the enemy is preparing for new strikes.
“There have been many reports, and they are not appearing without reason—we have intelligence, data from partners, and our own intelligence forces. We are observing the redeployment of tactical aviation and activity at airfields,” Ignat said.
The Air Force spokesperson noted that the activity involving the early loading of Russian aircraft, which the Ukrainian military has observed in recent days, indicates possible preparations for an attack.
Earlier, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also stated that Ukraine is preparing for new attacks from Russia.
“Today there was no lull on the front lines; there was combat activity. We have documented all of this. We also see that Russia has no intention of ending this war; unfortunately, we are preparing for new attacks. But there must be peace. We are working precisely toward that,” the head of state emphasized.
In addition, Ivano-Frankivsk Mayor Ruslan Martsinkiv urged residents to pay close attention to air raid sirens over the next three days.
