He said Russian troops had advanced five to ten kilometres along the northeastern border before being stopped by Ukrainian forces.

Quote from Zelenskyy: "The Russian offensive could consist of several waves. The first wave was in Kharkiv Oblast.

We must be sober and understand that they are going deep into our territory. And not vice versa. And this is still their advantage."
